Selectboard to investigate Maple Lane bump, drainage berms and stop-sign visibility

During the road report portion of the Sept. 7 meeting, Martha Bissell asked the Selectboard to address a bump at the Maple Lane entrance and whether the pavement could be dug out. Tom Bissell reported that berms on the side of roads are causing water to run along the driving surface instead of into ditches; Randolph Wilson said he would speak to the road foreman about the issue.

Arnold Martin asked whether another stop sign could be placed where Noyestar Road meets Route 15 because an existing sign is sometimes blocked by apartment-house parking; Debbie Messier said she would look into it. The board also agreed to cut more brush on Noyestar Road to increase visibility and safety. The minutes do not record any immediate funding decisions or scheduled repairs beyond a commitment to consult the road foreman and cut brush.
