'Theriault' stream plan estimates $269,000 for diagonal culvert; board awaiting straight-culvert option
Summary
Selectmen received an engineer's plan for a diagonal culvert at the Theriault stream with an estimated cost of $269,000 and noted erosion concerns related to vegetation removal and hay bales in the stream. They are awaiting information on a straight-culvert alternative.
Selectmen reviewed an engineering plan for work at the Theriault stream, which included a diagonal culvert option estimated at $269,000. The board said it was waiting to hear back about a straight-culvert alternative. Minutes record concerns about hay bales and vegetation removal along a property owner’s driveway that could increase erosion risk.
The board asked staff to follow up with the engineer and contractor about culvert options and the potential impact of recent bank clearing. No funding source or timetable for construction was recorded in the minutes; those details will depend on subsequent engineering recommendations, permitting, and budgeting.
