Uxbridge Select Board roundup: appointments, surplus vehicles, parking restriction, street name, special warrant and fire-engine life reaffirmed
Summary
The Select Board unanimously approved a package of administrative items Oct. 27, including committee appointments, surplus vehicles, a parking restriction, a private-way street name (packet shows two spellings), posting a special town meeting warrant, and a bonding certification for a fire engine.
The Select Board handled several routine administrative items and votes at its Oct. 27 meeting.
Appointments: The board appointed Cameron Sears and Anna Chnappy as alternate members and Jessica Wojnarowski as a full member of the town’s 300th‑anniversary committee. The motion passed with a unanimous vote.
Surplus vehicles: The police department asked the board to declare two vehicles (a 2014 Ford Taurus and a 2016 Ford Explorer) surplus because they no longer had repurposing value; the board approved sending them to auction.
Parking: Following a Public Safety Committee recommendation, the board approved placing no-parking signs on one side of Morrison Street to preserve emergency access during events and school traffic.
Street name: The board approved a private-way name off Mendon Street drawn from the town "wall of honor." The transcript shows two spellings in the packet/discussion — 'Lamia Way' and 'Lemire Way' — and the board approved the name as presented. The record includes both variants; town staff should confirm the intended spelling in the official documentation.
Special town meeting warrant: The board placed and voted to post a special town meeting warrant for Dec. 1, 2025 (10 articles). One article (article 7) remains under town-counsel review for final motion wording; the board assigned who will read each article at the meeting.
Fire engine useful life for bonding: The board adopted a certification required by bond counsel, determining the maximum useful life of the fire engine to be financed with proceeds of a $1,030,000 borrowing is 15 years for the purpose of the town’s borrowing authorization. The board recorded a unanimous vote to adopt the certification.
Minutes and adjournment: The board approved minutes for Sept. 27, Oct. 11 and Oct. 14, 2025, unanimously, and adjourned.
Provenance: Topic introduced SEG 1019; actions and closing recorded SEG 2198.
