Resident raises camper, junkyard and repeated trash pickup concerns before Roxbury selectmen
Summary
During public comment a resident asked the town to investigate a camper believed to be turning a property into a junk yard and described repeated trash pickup failures over several days; the board instructed that it be added to code enforcement and to arrange a meeting with the hauler's manager.
A resident told the Board of Selectmen they were concerned that a camper recently brought onto a property "on the notches" was creating what appeared to be a junk-yard condition and asked the Code Enforcement Officer to check the site. The minutes record the board agreed to add the matter to Code Enforcement follow-up.
The same resident also described repeated trash pickup failures: the hauler picked up too early on Thursday so some trash was missed, and the resident said the company then sent someone later that afternoon but trash still wasn’t collected; similar failures occurred again Friday, Saturday and on the meeting day (Tuesday). The resident said they had been in correspondence with the hauler's office and manager and requested the board set a meeting with the manager to resolve ongoing pickup issues.
