Board flags Class VI road rules for further review

Board of Selectmen · August 24, 2026

Summary

The Board reviewed an ordinance on construction on Class VI and private roads, discussed minimum distance requirements relative to Class V roads, and decided further study is needed because the ordinance raises complex policy and implementation questions.

The Board examined a draft ordinance addressing construction on Class VI and private roads and discussed minimum distance requirements to Class V roads. Members noted several practical and legal complexities tied to Class VI road policy and deferred detailed decisions to a later meeting.

Town zoning coordinator Tim Bray and other staff were asked to provide additional research and draft language for the Board to consider. No formal motion or vote was recorded; the Board directed staff to study the issue further because it involves multiple implementation trade-offs.
