The council did not act on the Public Works project at this meeting.
Paul Whitcomb spoke during public comment at the June 29 Brunswick Town Council special meeting to raise concerns about the proposed Public Works fuel station project.
Whitcomb asked the Council to move the station from the proposed senior gardens site to the leaf mulch pile, keep the current salt and sand shed intact, and plant more than an acre of trees between the project site and nearby residences to reduce noise and vibration. He also urged town staff and councilors to examine alternative site or design options for the project.
The minutes record Whitcomb’s request but show no formal action by the Council on the Public Works fuel station at this meeting. Staff present included Town Manager Julia Henze and Assistant Town Manager Jay Astle; no response or motion regarding the project location is recorded in the minutes. Any future consideration or decisions would appear on a subsequent agenda or in project documents attached to the permanent record.
