Selectboard identifies sidewalk priorities, agrees to remove unpermitted signs and improve committee coordination
Summary
Board members reported results of a sidewalk tour identifying roughly 10,000 linear feet and several problem segments targeted for repair, agreed to remove unpermitted signs from Town property (keeping farmers market signs through September), and directed the Town Administrator to convene committee chairs around Oct. 1 to improve onboarding and reporting.
During the Selectboard roundtable, Joel Bouvier described a recent sidewalk tour measuring roughly 10,000 linear feet and prioritizing segments in poor condition, including parts of Mountain Street, Fitch Avenue, Spring Street, and Garfield. Town Administrator Greg Faust said Public Works located problem spots for corrective work and that the team will develop a prioritized repair plan possibly beginning in spring.
The Board reached consensus to remove unpermitted signs from Town property (with farmers market signs to remain until the market concludes in late September). Jessica Teets raised concerns about fence damage from a fallen tree near the reservoir and questioned committee reporting; Town Administrator Faust said he will convene committee chairs around Oct. 1 to align committee work with the Town Plan and improve regular reporting. Members expressed support for filling committee vacancies and clarifying onboarding.
