Residents, staff flag full stump dump; town to explore options
Summary
The Selectboard heard that the transfer station stump dump is extremely full, that the road crew cannot address it, and that the town may need to find a new site or close the facility; a resident asked whether stumps could be sold for mulch.
Town staff reported the transfer station’s stump dump is very full and the road crew cannot manage the volume. Chad Stoddard asked whether stumps might be sold; Taylor Prouty said Hunter Excavating previously took stumps for mulch but that practice has been discontinued. The Selectboard noted the town may need to look for another location or consider closing the stump dump if a solution is not found.
No motion was made; the item was recorded as an update for future follow-up. The board did not yet identify a new site or timeline for action.
