Resident raises Route 30/Bridge concern and flags Vermont wetland-mapping meeting
Summary
A resident (Andrea) asked for follow-up about an identified bridge and said she would press VTrans for a response; she also relayed a Bennington County Conservation District notice and urged public comment on new Vermont wetland maps at an Arlington meeting June 16.
During public comment, a resident who had signed in as Andrea raised concerns about a Route 30 bridge (initially mistaken for Bridge 42) and said she had not yet received a reply from VTrans. She told the board she would follow up with state contacts and that she had copied the Winhall Select Board on the correspondence; the Chair offered the board’s support and to place the item on a future agenda or provide a letter if necessary.
Andrea also shared an announcement from the Bennington County Conservation District about a Vermont wetland-mapping update session in Arlington on June 16. She said the updated mapping uses new federal wetland data, can expand or contract mapped wetlands, and may affect rural landowners’ permitting obligations; she encouraged public input and attendance at the session.
The board acknowledged the outreach and encouraged Andrea to continue following up with VTrans; no formal action was taken at the meeting.
