Board approves Kimble Street changes, paves payment and appoints highway operator
Summary
The Select Board approved Central Mass RPC changes for Kimble Street, authorized payment to Part Loam and Sons Paving for work through Oct. 31, 2025, and appointed Christopher Stevens as a highway operator; Stevens holds a Class B license and will pursue hydraulics certification.
At the Dec. 9 meeting the Select Board approved several routine items from the consent and business agenda:
• Kimble Street changes: The board voted to accept the Central Mass Regional Planning Commission’s recommended changes to Kimble Street.
• Paving payment: The board approved the payment application for Part Loam and Sons Paving for work completed through Oct. 31, 2025.
• Highway appointment: The board appointed Christopher Stevens as a highway department operator. Board members discussed that Stevens already holds a Class B operator license enabling him to run heavy trucks and that he is in the process of obtaining a hydraulics license; the town typically offers part‑time Class B operators $30 per hour and a wage step was expected after additional licensing is completed.
Each motion was moved, seconded, and approved during the meeting; detailed roll‑call tallies were not recorded in the public discussion.
