Canaan selectmen add and approve Falls Village Car & Motorcycle Show for July 12, 2026
Summary
The board voted unanimously to support the Falls Village Car & Motorcycle Show on July 12, 2026, following a request from organizer and Selectman Judy Jacobs for road closures and town property use; the organizer was thanked during public comment.
Selectman Judy Jacobs — who also submitted a March 9 letter as the event organizer — asked the board for permission for road closures and use of town property for the Falls Village Car & Motorcycle Show scheduled for July 12, 2026. The letter noted strong resident support, fundraising benefits for local groups and continued use of professional traffic control.
First Selectman David Barger moved to support the 2026 show and Selectman Christopher Kinsella seconded; the motion passed unanimously. The board earlier voted to add Item 10(D) — the car and motorcycle show — to the agenda. During public comment the organizer was thanked for the event’s positive atmosphere, respectful participants and efficient cleanup.
Next steps: The minutes record board support; details on specific road‑closure permits, exact Town property uses, and any required liability or traffic‑control arrangements were not specified in the minutes and will be handled by staff and the organizer as needed.
