Sutton appoints two to Conservation Commission; board to review home-burial policy
Summary
The Select Board appointed Tara Lynn Scheidet and Erin Patoine to the Sutton Conservation Commission and agreed to review a sample home-burial policy from St. Johnsbury and consult the town attorney before deciding whether to adopt similar guidance.
Two residents who submitted letters of interest, Tara Lynn Scheidet and Erin Patoine, were appointed to the Sutton Conservation Commission after a motion by Denis and a second by Joe; the motion passed. The minutes highlight Tara Lynn’s experience organizing litter pickups, cleaning areas of Willoughby State Forest and identifying invasive species, and her interest in youth involvement.
During her remarks, Tara Lynn asked whether Sutton has a home-burial plan. Patti McClure presented an email and the St. Johnsbury policy for the board to review. The board agreed to consult the town attorney and revisit the matter at a later meeting rather than adopt a policy immediately.
