Van Etten Dissolution Vote Highlights Fracture Between Village And Town

Residents in the Village of Van Etten are split over whether to dissolve their government. They vote on it next week. If yes, the village would be absorbed by the Town of Van Etten, but, the decision is not just about saving money. It’s about a deep rift between the village and town governments. Heather Gable and a small group of people took it upon themselves earlier this year to circulate a petition and bring village dissolution up for a vote.
