Surry selectmen review erosion, culvert and roadwork after site inspections
Summary
Selectmen reported completing the Bergevin and Avery site inspections, reviewed an MME quote for a Pond Road culvert repair and discussed state and Army Corps coordination for erosion concerns and roadwork.
Selectmen in Surry reviewed multiple local infrastructure items at their Aug. 26 meeting, including recent site inspections and a culvert repair quote.
Steve Goldsmith reported completing the Bergevin site inspection. Ron Profaizer and Goldsmith said they conducted a site inspection on the Avery erosion concern and documented conditions with photographs; the board discussed contacting a state representative and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to address the erosion issue. The minutes record that the selectmen reviewed photos of Denise Dragon’s driveway but reached no conclusion.
The board reviewed a quote from MME for the Pond Road culvert, discussing project timeline needs, an updated insurance certificate and the potential use of a cofferdam during work. Steve Goldsmith also reported checking with Mutual Aid about ensuring Surry would not be billed for truck and gravel expenses related to tower road repair. Ron Profaizer reported the dirt piles from road work had been cleared, and Durwin Clark will perform roadside trimming this week with a rented mower.
No formal approvals or contract awards are recorded in the minutes; the record shows the selectmen discussed options and documentation and indicated follow-up steps (contacting external agencies, verifying insurance and coordinating costs).
