Selectboard backs American Legion banner program to honor veterans
Summary
The Bradford Selectboard unanimously agreed to allow the American Legion Dow‑Lougee Post 115 to fundraise and hang veteran banners on telephone poles along Route 221 from May through December at $120 per banner.
The Bradford Selectboard voted unanimously on Feb. 16 to support an American Legion flag‑banner program and to permit fundraising and banner installation at public events, including distribution at the Annual Town Meeting.
Roger Gray, representing American Legion Dow‑Lougee Post 115 in Corinth, asked the board to allow banners that would be posted on telephone poles along Route 221 from May through December. The minutes record a per‑banner cost of $120 and state the banners would be posted year over year for the life of the banner.
Boardmember Terrie Allen moved to offer support and to allow the banners to be hung; Boardmember Randy Margraf seconded the motion and it passed with all members voting in favor.
What’s next: The American Legion will proceed with fundraising and banner procurement; the board recorded permission to hang the banners but did not specify permitting logistics, liability arrangements, or installation responsibilities in the minutes.
