Ponside residents to meet with staff on BrightView site; erosion controls said to be in place
Summary
Town staff told the board photos of soil stockpiles at the BrightView site show standard stockpiles with erosion controls; contractors are expected to tarp or remove material within days, and one remaining corrective item (swale regrading) will be addressed after staff reviews a design submitted that afternoon.
Board members and staff discussed a follow‑up meeting with Ponside residents about the BrightView construction site. Staff said the operator provided photos; town staff and engineers have inspected the site and reported no observed sediment leaving the BrightView area into Ponside, but the town will continue to monitor during rain events.
A staff representative described the photos as "standard stockpiles" with erosion‑control measures and said the contractor "should have already done it by now, tarped with big plastic tarps over those ... soil stockpile areas to protect them from the rain." One outstanding corrective action — regrading a swale — was noted; the design engineer submitted a regrade design that afternoon and staff will review it the next day.
The board encouraged residents and all affected parties to be in the same meeting so everyone hears the same update; staff was asked to confirm BrightView and Metropolis attendance and to report back on whether further enforcement actions are needed.
