Winhall faces E911 renumbering challenge for condos as state spacing rules conflict with local practice
Summary
Board members said Piper Ridge and Intervale need E911 numbers but that state-required spacing would force the town to change its current 50-foot numbering rule to 5.28 feet, potentially requiring townwide renumbering for condominiums.
Select Board members and highway staff discussed E911 numbering at the March 18 meeting, noting specific need at Piper Ridge and Intervale. Christie Boswell and Beth Grant raised the issue and Scott Bushee explained that the state's numbering differential requirement would force the town to change the local 50-foot interval rule to 5.28 feet for consistency, which may mean a future townwide renumbering to properly reflect condo spacing.
Board members discussed asking condominium associations to provide a site map of their facilities to ease the process and prepare for any required changes. No formal motion to renumber was taken; the discussion framed next steps as mapping and further review with state guidance.
