Selectmen outline May 20 agenda, including public hearing on building on Class VI road and a planned utility outage
Summary
The Selectmen’s May 20 agenda, posted for an Academy Hall/Zoom meeting, listed a public hearing on construction on a Class VI road, a grant-abatement item, Beech Hill Road upgrades, transfer-station changes, a Unitil outage on May 22, and the next meeting on June 3.
The Selectmen met May 20 with an agenda posted for Academy Hall and via Zoom listing routine town business and several items of immediate local interest. Key items included a scheduled public hearing on an application to build on a Class VI road (Plains Road, Map 220, Lot 3); a grant-abatement request for Map 211, Lot 5 (Rossetti and Rasenas); and notice that tax bills under the 2026 town warrant are due July 1.
The agenda also listed infrastructure and service items: a Road Agent/Fire Department item on proposed Beech Hill Road upgrades and transfer-station issues including installation of a square-card reader and handling of a metal pile. A Unitil interruption in service was noted for May 22 at 6 a.m. Town Hall siding repair and two Supervisors of the Checklist sessions (June 2, 7–7:30 p.m., and June 15, 9–10 a.m.) were included under new business.
The public-hearing item names the property owners for the Plains Road parcel as George Taylor and Brain & Heather Allen and frames the item as an Application for Agreement & Notice of Limits of Municipal Responsibility & Liability for building on a Class VI road. The transcript provides no record of deliberation, motion, or vote on that application; the agenda indicates the matter was scheduled for hearing but does not record an outcome.
Several committee and administrative notes were included: Planning Board met May 18; a Highway Building work session was postponed to June 3; the Old Home Day Committee’s May 12 meeting was canceled; and the Energy Committee met May 13. The agenda closed with old business, Selectmen’s reports, public comments, the Town Administrator’s report, and a reminder that the next meeting is Wednesday, June 3, 2026 at 7:00 p.m. upstairs in Academy Hall.
No motions, votes, formal decisions, or public comments are recorded in the provided transcript excerpt. Where timing or numeric details were stated on the agenda (for example, the exact start time for the Unitil interruption and the dates/times for Supervisors of the Checklist sessions), they are reported here exactly as listed on the agenda.
