SELECTMEN’S REPORT

Lee Stack provided background information on the application for a boundary line adjustment from the Rieblings. He noted that several construction projects had taken place without any building permits. The Selectmen had issued a cease and desist order until a boundary line delineation, zoning setbacks and septic issues had been resolved. After re-establishing the boundary line, it had been found that the tennis court did not meet the setbacks - hence the boundary line adjustment application.

Lee Stack updated the Board on the Town roads following a major storm. All the roads had been impacted, some had been washed out, and some people were stranded for quite some time. The Highway crew had done a great job in putting the Town back together. The Town will be applying for FEMA funds.
