Summary

New Haven Library Trustees asked the Selectboard to reconsider the placement of a three‑pillar Homer Hulbert memorial; the board will coordinate a meeting with memorial contacts to find a permanent site.

The Selectboard reviewed a letter from the New Haven Library Trustees requesting reconsideration of the proposed location for the Homer Hulbert memorial. Board members said the memorial turned out to be three separate pillars rather than a single small pillar originally expected, prompting a discussion of alternative and temporary locations.

Pam Kingman was assigned to coordinate a meeting between memorial representatives (Ed Hilbert and Kathy Cahill) and Chair John Roleau or another Selectboard member to identify an appropriate permanent site. No formal vote on placement was taken.
