PUBLIC HEARING
Monday, June 20, 2005
Town Office
Chairman Greene called a public hearing to order to review proposed ordinances and to review existing ordinances.
Present: Selectmen Jerry Greene, Daniel Donoval, III and David Glines, Stuart Draper, Charles McGettigan, Dennis Markiverich and Bill Parker.
Mr. McGettigan asked why the town was considering more stop and yield
signs. He stated that there should be more study of proposed stop
signs and stated that he felt what was now in place was sufficient.
Selectman Greene stated that Chief Hautanen had asked to look into what
they felt was needed for the safety of roads. The Chief and Highway
Agent submitted a list of what they considered to be needed. The
Board of Selectmen reviewed the list and it was presented to the Budget
Committee for consideration. The list has been pared down to the
present list of proposed new stop or yield signs. Mr. Draper stated
that he questioned if all this was a waste of time and money. He
questioned if the proposed stop signs would be enforced. Chief Brent
stated that they would be.

Comments:
Russell and Maple – should it be Livermore and Tremont?
Look into which is correct
“No left hand turn” sign should be on right side of Road on Tremont
Maple and Main – should be yield sign instead of stop
Comments that small side streets to Main Street do not need stop signs
–
Yield would be sufficient
