Inspection finds West Newbury station undersized; Selectboard to receive cost estimate
Summary
Committee members reported the West Newbury station is poorly constructed with undersized overhead doors; Charlie Mabey will prepare a list of needs and estimated costs for the Selectboard, which has voted to keep the station as a satellite under the Village Station.
Committee members reported that the West Newbury station building is not well constructed and is too small for current apparatus, with overhead doors too small to allow smooth entry and exit. Committee member Charlie Mabey inspected the building and will prepare a list of needs and estimated costs to present to the Selectboard.
The minutes state the Selectboard has voted to retain West Newbury as a satellite operation under the leadership of the Newbury Village Station for the foreseeable future. Chief John Renfrew will engage with the Selectboard to formulate a plan for upgrading the building; no timeline or cost figures were included in the minutes.
