Selectboard tightens Common Use policy and approves temporary alcohol service for farmer's market
Summary
Following an incident involving tent stakes, the Selectboard approved revised Common Use policy language and unanimously approved an application from Westford Provisions to serve alcohol at the Farmers Market via a pop-up summer bar.
The Selectboard approved amendments to the Town Common Use policy that clarify signage limits and the process for referring special cases to the Selectboard.
The board received a draft letter from the Common Committee regarding tent stakes left on the Common and asked the committee to send the letter without changes. The Selectboard discussed allowing town-sponsored and Recreation Department signage while still limiting private or political signs as provided by zoning rules. The board then approved Common Use applications and unanimously accepted Westford Provisions’ request to serve alcohol at Farmers Markets from a temporary pop-up bar on the Common.
