Benjamin Brickner

Benjamin Brickner serves as Chair of the Pomfret Selectboard and is a practicing attorney. In a January 2026 commentary, he argued that Vermont's cost crises — including healthcare, housing, and education — are interconnected and should be addressed with coordinated solutions, noting that for Pomfret's 916 residents, rising non-discretionary costs have forced hard choices such as scaling back road maintenance and forgoing additional staff support even as taxes continue to rise.
