EDC minutes report WW Cross stalemate after recusals; Old Sharon Road safety audit would need Select Board approval
Summary
Draft minutes say two Select Board members recused themselves on the WW Cross matter leaving no quorum to act; the Old Sharon Road Safety Audit could begin with design services funded through the CRF but would require Select Board approval, the minutes record.
The draft minutes record two roundtable items of governance and next steps. First, the minutes say WW Cross is at a stalemate because two Select Board members determined they needed to recuse themselves from any decision on the matter; the minutes state that leaves no quorum and no statutory means to move forward.
Second, the minutes record that Kevin (listed among attendees) asked about the process for moving forward with an Old Sharon Road Safety Audit. The minutes indicate the EDC could begin by funding design services through the CRF but that such action would require Select Board approval.
Why it matters: the WW Cross stalemate affects the town’s ability to resolve a pending matter due to recusals, and the safety-audit question identifies a funding and approval path that still depends on the Select Board. The minutes do not describe the substance of the WW Cross matter or the reasons for recusals; they record the procedural consequence.
What’s next: Select Board action would be required to fund design services for the Old Sharon Road audit. The minutes do not record further motions, votes, or a timeline for Select Board consideration.
