4.       Park Place Demolition – Casella follow up: They will install large boulders as specified in the plan. Stone for the road has been laid and the road is in good shape. Area is temporarily blocked with a tree until boulders are put in place.
5.       Paving review/appointment with VTrans – Follow-up: Paving project has been moved to 2020. Dave Colton has expressed concern about culvert by the pond at the fire station. Charlie will contact VTrans engineers to review this issue and the run-off from Upper Michigan so VTrans can plan appropriately.
6.       Set Municipal Tax Rate – School tax rate has not been received yet however the Board cannot change it anyway. Patty presented the approved 2017 municipal budget totals and the Actual 2017 Grand List total. Using these figures the 2017 municipal tax rate will be .45. The municipal tax rate was estimated at .45 at town meeting. Peter motioned to set the municipal tax rate at .45 and add the school tax rate on once the town receives it and that figure is the resultant tax rate; Matt seconded; motion carried.
7.       VTrans – Trees in Tweed River Open Space: Peter suggests having TRORC review the situation. He will send them the information via e-mail and will follow-up by telephone. Relocation of the trees, telephone pole placement, guardrail placement, ROW for culvert and FEMA approval all need to be in writing from VTrans. Will discuss further at next meeting.
