Selectman vows to press Memorial Grounds contractor; ADA compliance question raised
Summary
Selectman David Winchell said a contractor will finish Memorial Grounds work in two to three weeks and volunteered to help. The board agreed to verify whether ADA compliance applies to the town memorial.
Selectman David Winchell reported he had received resident emails raising concerns about the pace and scope of work at the Memorial Grounds project. Winchell said the contractor, Mr. Denis, notified him of issues that delayed completion but told the board he expects the work finished in two to three weeks; Winchell said he planned to volunteer time to assist with landscaping.
Board members noted that the email raised potential compliance items such as ADA access, and Winchell asked whether the town memorial must meet ADA standards. The board agreed to follow up with the appropriate authority to determine applicability before finalizing the work. Chair Ed Walsh described the project’s appearance as "looking good," but members said they would check required codes before declaring completion.
