Selectboard approves Class VI improvements on Knox Mountain Road pending written plan
Summary
The Sanbornton Selectboard approved improvements to the Class VI portion of Knox Mountain Road requested by property owner Tom Earley, contingent on a written plan submitted in coordination with Selectman Ralph Carter before the July 15 meeting.
The Sanbornton Selectboard on July 1 approved improvements to the Class VI portion of Knox Mountain Road requested by property owner Tom Earley, contingent on the submission of a written plan coordinated with Selectman Ralph Carter before the board's July 15 meeting.
Tom Earley told the board he owns property on the Class VI portion of Knox Mountain Road and wants to make improvements to reach his lot for recreational use; he said he does not plan to build on the property and has communicated with abutters. Selectman Ralph Carter noted that RSA 236 requires approval by the governing body or road agent for work on Class VI roads and asked for the plan in writing. The board voted unanimously to approve the improvements as discussed, with the condition that the written plan be provided in advance of the July 15 Selectboard meeting.
Selectman Brandon Deacon moved to approve the Class VI improvements pending submission of the written plan; Selectman Ralph Carter seconded and the motion passed unanimously. Highway Department Director Johnny Van Tassel was cited as having been consulted earlier in the spring, and the board directed that the plan be coordinated with Selectman Carter for review at the next meeting.
What happens next: The property owner will submit the written improvement plan and the Highway Department and Selectboard will review it at the July 15 meeting before any further action.
