Tunbridge staff to warn riverside homeowners about fire risk at upcoming fair
Summary
Brenda Field said she and Chief Bradford will draft a notice to homeowners on the 'fair side' of the village urging caution about pit fires because fire danger is high and river water levels are low; John O’Brien volunteered to meet with Field to develop a continuity-of-operations draft.
Brenda Field told the Selectboard that "her and Chief Bradford have discussed writing a note to the homeowners on the fair side of the village to be cautious this fair on fires in the pit," citing high fire danger and low water levels in river areas used by the fire department. Field asked for one person to meet with her to work through continuity-of-operations details; John O’Brien volunteered to serve as the contact.
Field also noted a prior small-purchase issue: the board had approved $150 for emergency vests but the purchase exceeded that amount, and she was reimbursed by the treasurer for the full cost. The board did not record a formal vote on the outreach or continuity plan during the meeting; Field said she will draft the continuity-of-operations document and return with it for the board to review.
