Summary

After a public hearing with no objections, the board approved National Grid and Verizon’s request to install one joint pole on Carol Hill Road to serve two new residences.

The Charlton Board of Selectmen held a public hearing on Dec. 10, 2024, and approved a petition from Massachusetts Electric Company (d/b/a National Grid) and Verizon New England to install one joint pole on Carol Hill Road to service two proposed residences.

Town staff said the petition and abutter notices were sent and that the police chief and the Department of Public Works superintendent had reviewed and approved the proposal; no public comments or objections were received. The board opened the public hearing, solicited comments, closed the hearing and then approved the request by unanimous vote.

The notice stated the pole would be installed beginning at a point approximately 12,124.6 feet north of the center line of the intersection of Worcester Road and Carol Hill Road, labeled P35-50 in the public way record, to serve two new residential homes. The utility companies and the town will complete standard permitting and installation steps now that the board has authorized the location.
