During a recent government meeting, a heated discussion emerged regarding a proposed project that involves shared roadway access. The treasurer clarified that the access is currently in tax title, indicating that it has been associated with unpaid taxes for many years, rather than just a few months.

One board member expressed strong opposition to moving forward with the project until all parties involved, including an abutter with tax liens, have settled their tax obligations. He emphasized the importance of accountability, stating, \"We all have to pay our real estate taxes, big and small.\" He described the situation as a \"disgrace\" and criticized the prolonged refusal to address these tax issues.

The board member's comments prompted a brief silence, with another member, Mr. Kelty, acknowledging the statement but refraining from further comment. The meeting concluded without any additional questions from the board, leaving the future of the project uncertain until the tax matters are resolved.
