My thought /question is; That if the said vehicle is owned by the town of Gilford, who pays??? The operators or the town of Gilford? ( the Tax payers ??) And before anyone jumps on me, YES I understand the those men were doing thier duty under the employ of the town. But who is liable.
The town, certainly not the operators...Come on....

Chances are the recovery cost will not be that bad and the town is insured. I doubt highly the state will charge a town fees for this.
