Select Board authorizes easement for Sugar Ridge subdivision ROW access after executive session
Summary
Following an executive session under 1 M.R.S.A. §405(6)(D), the Castle Hill Select Board voted 5–0 to authorize Rudman and Winchell to proceed with an easement as drafted for right-of-way access on the Sugar Ridge Subdivision.
The Castle Hill Select Board moved into executive session under 1 M.R.S.A. §405(6)(D) on June 11 to discuss negotiation of right-of-way access for the Sugar Ridge Subdivision, then voted afterward to authorize an easement as drafted.
Herman Condon moved to enter executive session at 6:58 p.m.; Maylen Kenney seconded the motion and it passed 5–0. The board adjourned the executive session at 7:04 p.m.
After returning to open session, Condon moved — and Kenney seconded — a motion authorizing Rudman and Winchell to proceed with the easement as drafted for ROW access on the Sugar Ridge Subdivision; the motion passed 5–0. The transcript records the action but does not include the text of the easement document itself. The town cited the governing executive-session statute, 1 M.R.S.A. §405(6)(D), as the basis for the closed-session negotiation.
The Select Board did not record further details about consideration of alternatives, compensation or timeline in the meeting minutes. Town staff or counsel are likely to follow up with parties to finalize recording of the easement and any related documents.
