Selectmen note DEP concerns about docks and riprap; approve asbestos website posting

Board of Selectmen, Town of Roxbury · July 14, 2026

Summary

Code enforcement reported DEP concerns about a dock and riprap and the board approved adding asbestos information to the town website under Code Enforcement; several parcels were removed from the agenda by motion and vote.

The board discussed multiple Code Enforcement items July 14, including DEP-flagged issues: a dock on Island (Map 3, Lot 15) and riprap observed in a stream (Map 10, Lots 59-60). Selectmen deferred action on some items until spring and voted 3-0 to remove Map 9 Lot 32 from the agenda.

Separately, Selectman Timothy Derouche moved and Matthew Patneaude seconded a motion to allow Brittany to add asbestos information to the town website under Code Enforcement; the motion passed 3-0. The DEP PFAS item was also removed from the agenda by unanimous vote.
