Beam signed

Last night before the selectmen met Chief Kingsbury brought a beam from the public safety building clock tower on a trailer by the Town House for the selectmen to sign. I had imagined signing with a white pen, but it turned out that the beam was white. Very cool.

Mark signed remotely.

Good thing Mark was not there last night as the meeting went to 9:45 – beavers at Fork Factory took most of the time. TTOR actually have a last revised in 2005 beaver policy, which is basically hands off unless beavers cause a nuisance. Killing trees is not a nuisance in their eyes, but erosion of Hartford Street would be. TTOR will follow up with DPW, and may add another beaver deceiver water bypass pipe into the beaver dam. Alec Stevens was concerned about sudden water releases at Fork Factory overwhelming his Jewels Pond, and that seemed to be heard by TTOR.

Good update by Board of Health – new sharps disposal container is located at DPW Garage, and they increase age to buy tobacco to age 21 effective January 1.
