Resident requests logging use of class 4 section of Square Road; board seeks formal agreement
Summary
Resident Dwight Denton asked to use a class 4 portion of Square Road for a logging job; the board discussed drafting a pre-use agreement requiring restoration, photographic documentation, and consulted VLCT for sample contracts.
Dwight Denton asked the Selectboard for permission to use a class 4 section of Square Road for a logging operation. The board discussed the need for a formal agreement requiring the road be returned to its prior condition after work, photographic documentation of road condition before work begins, and consideration of how logging traffic might affect an existing dog-sledding trail that also uses the road.
The board asked the town office to contact the Vermont League of Cities and Towns for an example contract or agreement that could be used for such requests. The minutes emphasize protecting the town’s recent work on that road and ensuring the condition after the logging job matches the pre-work condition.
