Supervisor, residents press board to advance local litter and unsafe-building laws
Summary
Supervisor William Griffin reported community engagement on proposed local litter and unsafe-building laws and said residents urged the board to act to improve the town's appearance; the item remains under Old Business for further revision and another motion was taken during the meeting.
Supervisor William Griffin reviewed the status of compliance and safety audit materials and summarized public engagement on proposed local litter and unsafe-building laws. Griffin said some lines were changed after an April hearing, dumpsters were provided for community cleanup, and he held open meetings for concerned citizens. He reported receiving 14 conversations and four emails from residents asking why the board had not acted sooner to improve the town's appearance.
Griffin described the process and asked if board members had received feedback; after discussion a motion was again brought forward to consider the local laws. Mary Zuhlsdorf made a motion and a second was recorded; a roll-call vote was taken. The transcript shows board discussion and a roll-call that recorded votes for and against in the course of reconsideration; the item will remain under Old Business so outstanding compliance issues can be resolved.
The board emphasized the goal of clearing outstanding compliance items this year and noted some issues may require additional resources. The draft local laws and any revised language will be returned for further board review.
