Summary

Homeowners said recent renumbering and survey discrepancies are causing 911-address confusion where Rogue's Ridge continues onto Moose Hollow; the Selectboard tabled the issue to March 19 and asked the 911 Coordinator and affected residents to attend.

Homeowners on Rogue's Ridge told the Selectboard they face confusion from renumbering of 911 addresses and from the fact that a survey map appears to show Rogue's Ridge continuing through what residents call Moose Hollow. They proposed physically discontinuing the roadway by dumping soil or rocks to form a barricade so the roads would no longer connect and the existing 911 numbers could stay the same.

The Selectboard did not take action at the meeting. Instead, Chair Stuart Coleman said the matter would be tabled until the March 19 meeting so that the 911 Coordinator, Randy Ameden, homeowners from both roads, and the Selectboard could meet to clarify the discrepancies and discuss a permanent solution. The minutes note that access permits for Rogue's Ridge and Moose Hollow will be delayed until the issue is resolved.

Residents described the proposed temporary barricade as a way to preserve current addressing and avoid township renumbering; the minutes do not record technical survey evidence, legal analysis, or any decision on whether a barricade is permissible. The board's action was procedural: schedule the next discussion with the relevant parties present.
