Residents and board clash over transfer-station changes, sticker distribution

Public comment at the Shapleigh select-board meeting centered on recent changes at the town transfer station and how the town is distributing stickers for access. Scott Folsom and multiple other residents told the board the new arrangement has caused long waits and confrontations with employees. "Traffic volume and speeds have increased noticeably," said Scott Folsom during public comment about a separate road issue, and several residents used the meeting to say similar concerns about safety and access at the transfer station. Residents urged the board to allow sticker issuance at the transfer station or to authorize interim measures to avoid confrontations with staff.
