Selectboard flags lack of right‑of‑way info on Route 17 culvert plans; town staff to confirm with VTrans
Summary
Town staff told the Selectboard that VTrans culvert replacement plans for Route 17/Main Street do not show an explicit right-of-way; the assistant will contact the VTrans ROW specialist to confirm boundaries before work proceeds.
The Selectboard added an agenda adjustment to discuss a VTrans culvert replacement on Route 17/Main Street after staff noticed the project plans did not list a right-of-way width. Pam Kingman reported she has contacted the VTrans right-of-way specialist to confirm how many rods wide Route 17 actually is and to clarify the plans’ legal right-of-way.
Board members discussed this as an administrative requirement that will affect permitting, property access and possibly project scope. No vote or final determination was made; staff will report back with VTrans clarification.
