A. Previous minutes: accepted as read.
B. Doug Garon brought the board up to date on the status of the towns’
cemeteries.
He stated the general repairs for up righting and cementing the present stones
would be roughly $700 to $1000 dollars.
The board authorized him to do the work.
Gore cemetery: adequate land available and the lots are mapped out.
Clark cemetery: no additional land available, map unavailable (burned in fire)
however it is logged on computer.
Cargill cemetery: land is available, boundaries need to established so mowing
can be accomplished; fencing and gate also need to be placed. Abutting
landowner still farms this land.
Beach cemetery: perimeter boundary still an issue for access and parking.
Larry agreed to contact the town lawyer and surveyor and try to get closure.
Fencing in need of repair/replacement. It was suggested the corner posts and
rails be established rather than full-length fencing, as the ground is quite
uneven and difficult to maintain.
The board approved this.
C: A thank you note was received from the “Old Stone House” for the $350.00
appropriation approved at town meeting.
D: A letter of request for signatures on a VEC utility easement was reviewed
and approved and signed by the board. It allows crossing and tie in to present
power access off from town Hwy 15.
E: A request to attend a Government and Accounting and Auditing Seminar on
June 22nd was received from Tammy. This was approved, the fee is $65.00.
F: A bill was received from Endyne Inc. for routine yearly testing of our
landfill test wells. There were no compliance issues or recommendations.
G: A copy of an Act 250 Land Use Permit Re: Kevin Fries was received from Dill
& Keenan Attys. This was read, reviewed and filed.
H: A state “Bridge inspection Summary Report” was received from Shawn Austin.
This was reviewed and there were no recommendations or actions that needed to
be taken. It was signed and dated and filed.
I: Approval was given to Tammy to have the septic system pumped. It has not
been done in the last 16 years.
J: Jason Duquette, warden for the Fish and Wildlife Dept. Inquired if the
town had an ATV /4-wheeler ordinance. He suggested the town might wish to
develop one. This will be taken under advisement.
K: Old Business
A brief discussion by R. Miller of activities that he and Sean Selby took to
address the lack of proper animal control, licensure and vaccination records
was given. A full report as submitted by Mr. Miller is on file at the town
clerks office. A follow up report on the compliance with the recommendations
to the owner will be made after a 30-day period.
Mr. Tom Bonneville has agreed to be the Town Animal Control Officer, it is
