Selectboard hears highway report on split trees, paving blade and pothole repair
Summary
Highway Supervisor Allen Wight told the Selectboard equipment is in good repair, reported split trees needing Tree Warden evaluation, and said a new paving blade will arrive next week; cold patch will be used to fix a pothole at the Green Bridge.
Allen Wight, the town’s Highway Supervisor, told the Selectboard that equipment is in good repair and employees are performing well. He said several trees are split “down the middle”; while they are not endangering houses or power lines, he described them as a risk to town infrastructure and asked the Tree Warden to evaluate removal options.
Wight said a new paving blade should arrive next week. Vice Chair Kevin Gish flagged a pothole at the end of the Green Bridge; Wight said cold patch material is due Thursday and will be used to address the location. The Selectboard did not take a separate vote on specific repair contracts during the meeting.
