Historical society proposes flagpole and marble plaques for Tinmouth—s 250th celebration
Summary
The historical society asked the Select Board to support a 250th-anniversary installation: a flagpole and four marble plaques near the community building. Board members discussed placement, lighting, flag protocol and ongoing maintenance responsibilities.
A representative of the historical society (speaker 7) described tentative plans for the town's 250th anniversary: installing a flagpole and placing four marble plaques near the community building to note incorporation dates. "Tentatively got support for that," the speaker said, and asked for the board's blessing to pursue location research and neighbor outreach.
Board members discussed flag protocol (lighting the flag if left up at night), maintenance responsibility (likely deferred to the town if installed on town property) and possible unveiling at Town Funday. Members asked the historical society to consult the principal and neighbors about placement and to return with a recommended site and cost estimates for review.
