Emergency meeting: The Selectboard will hold an emergency meeting tonight 7/23/13 at 6:30pm at the town office meeting room to approve remedies for two problems that popped up yesterday: the Willow Brook Road culvert partial washout and a replacement for the grader cutting edge that broke. They need to be addressed now and cannot wait for a regular or later special meeting. As always, members of the public are welcome. We expect it to be brief!
Roadside mowing: Yes, roadside mowing began today and will continue for the next few days. We hire an outside contractor with a mower so he will not be as familiar with individual properties as our own road crew.
Be aware that on most roads, the town right of way runs about 25 feet to either side from the center line of the road. If you care about your plantings, refrain from landscaping (or placing fences or structures) within the right of way.
The town's ability to maintain our roads, road shoulders and ditches is ultimately a matter of public safety. Thanks for your understanding.
