Selectboard weighs maintenance and sand for Halls Lake Beach amid environmental questions
Summary
Selectboard members discussed repairs to fencing and benches at Halls Lake Beach and options to add sand; volunteers offered labor while board sought the Halls Lake Association management plan and cost estimates, with environmental impacts discussed.
At the Feb. 11 Selectboard meeting, member Jeff McKelvey raised a request from a resident to repair fence and benches at Halls Lake Beach and to add more sand, which was last replenished two years ago. Volunteers have offered to provide labor for the work, the minutes say.
The board discussed environmental concerns related to adding sand and asked McKelvey to contact the Halls Lake Association for its management plan, research costs and sourcing, and inquire whether Riverbend Career & Technical Center could assist and whether equipment (a tractor‑mounted post hole digger) could be loaned to support fence work. No funding decision or schedule was recorded in the minutes.
