The Town Manager told the council the town’s first phase of paving is complete on Pleasant, Parker, Hamden and Meadowbrook roads and crews are resetting curbs and other structures removed during the recycling phase to prepare for final pavement. "Paving is tentatively scheduled to start yesterday or today. Always weather permitting," the Town Manager said.
He also said MassDOT plans to begin work on the southern part of Prospect Street on Sept. 17 and the town is awaiting details on the scope and signage. Councilors discussed possible follow-up about Chestnut Street’s hill paving and the need for Chapter 90 approvals for some projects; the Town Manager said projects that require Chapter 90 funds need DOT approval in advance.
