Selectboard authorizes town manager and road foreman to close turnouts to deter dumping
Summary
The Selectboard approved a motion authorizing the town manager and road foreman to block off roadside turnouts as needed to deter illegal trash dumping on town roads.
On May 12 the Williamstown Selectboard granted authority to the town manager and the road foreman to block off turnouts where illegal trash dumping is a problem. The motion was made by Cote Griggs, seconded by Clayton Woodworth, and recorded as carried.
The action directs operational staff to take site-level measures to prevent repeat dumping; the motion gives town staff discretion to block turnouts "as necessary to deter trash dumping." The minutes do not identify specific locations beyond prior site visits and do not list a sunset date for the authority.
