Town authorizes removal of hazardous tree on Pleasant Pond Road
Summary
After inspection, the board authorized removal of a dead tree on Pleasant Pond Road. The Town Administrator inspected and tagged the tree; the Road Agent then requested authorization to remove it and the board approved the work. The minutes include a name inconsistency (Pike/Paige) that is flagged for clarity.
Town Administrator Jamie A. Pike inspected a reported hazardous tree on Pleasant Pond Road, tagged it as hazardous, and requested that the Road Agent evaluate it. Following the Road Agent's review, the minutes state that "Mr. Paige requested authorization to have the tree removed." On a motion by Mr. Heath seconded by Chair Fitzgerald, the board authorized Mr. Paige to remove the dead tree; the motion passed.
The minutes use both the names "Pike" and "Paige" in the same paragraph (Jamie A. Pike inspected the tree; later the minutes attribute the removal request to Mr. Paige). The transcript does not explicitly identify whether the Road Agent is Mr. Paige or if this is a typographical inconsistency. This article reports the names as they appear in the minutes and flags the inconsistency for municipal clarification.
