Killington is a town in Rutland County, Vermont, United States. The population was 1,407 at the 2020 census.[3] Killington Ski Resort and numerous vacation lodges are located here. The town was previously named Sherburne, but was renamed to its original name, "Killington", in 1999.

History

Gifford Woods State Park

The town of Killington was chartered on July 7, 1761, by a New Hampshire grant. In 1800, it was renamed Sherburne[4] after landholder Colonel Benjamin Sherburne.[5] The town voted to revert to its original name of Killington on March 2, 1999; which was approved by the Vermont General Assembly and became effective July 1, 1999.[6]

The 2007 town meeting considered a proposal to impose a three-cent surcharge on every dollar of property tax revenue. The proceeds would have been used to fund a town economic development group. The surcharge was not approved by the voters.[7]

Killington was one of thirteen Vermont towns isolated by flooding caused by Hurricane Irene on August 28, 2011. Killington was cut off for 19 days.[8]

Secession referendums

Killington's voters have twice voted to secede from Vermont and join the State of New Hampshire, 25 miles (40 km) to the east. The movement stems from what some residents perceive as an inequity in taxes sent to the state of Vermont, for services received. The votes are largely symbolic, as secession is highly unlikely and would require the agreement of both states' legislatures, as well as that of the U.S. Congress.

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 46.9 square miles (121 km2), of which 46.6 square miles (121 km2) is land and 0.2 square miles (0.52 km2), or 0.47%, is water. The Ottauquechee River has its headwaters in the town.[9] The central part of the town, extending along Killington Road from U.S. Route 4 in the north to the Killington Ski Resort in the south, comprises the Killington Village census-designated place. The Appalachian Trail crosses the northern part of the town, then joins the Long Trail to cross the western part.
