Board hears concerns about parking and emergency access on Narrows Road
Summary
Members and residents discussed parking issues next to the Narrows Road bridge, noting narrow lanes and the risk that parked vehicles could block emergency access; the board said any final changes would be preceded by a public hearing.
Board members and residents raised safety concerns about parking on Narrows Road beside the bridge. Committee member (S2) described that vehicles parked near the bridge make it difficult for regular cars to pass and "there's no way an emergency vehicle's getting through there with those vehicles there."
The board discussed options including looking for town-owned property or nearby fields for alternative parking but acknowledged constraints because the town does not own land adjacent to the bridge. Chair (S1) said any permanent change would be subject to a public hearing so neighbors and lake users could provide input before action is taken.
