Since it has been shown the school district has a hard time with snow removal when there is 12 inches plus, the Town will, despite the regional agreement, provide a loader and trucks as necessary, to remover snow from parking areas and the "cross road" between Wellington and South Road. There will be a cost attributable to snow & Ice, which the budgeted amount barely covers the cost to plow town roads. This is an item that has been tentatively put in place by the Town Administrator in agreement with Superintendent. The arrival of winter has shown that some of the concerns and questions raised along the way of the school being built were justified. The site looked great on paper, on a summer day, but how things change when you add the white stuff (snow) If you think this is only happening at the school, check out cumbies and notice how much parking they have lost due, in part, to snow accumulation. A learning curve for the school district plowing their areas out

  1. I do not understand how the Town Administrator can add to or change any agreement with any department with out a vote of the Selectmen ? $$, no extra charge for doing this or out of the kindness of his heart, on our dime. Looks like Carter's underfunded Highway Budget will need a transfusion. Gee, I would like to vote on a real budget in May, but as long as he is here we may need another machine to backfill all of these underfunded accounts. Bennett, you better run for the three year term in May so we can run this town in a more honest and open way. Just saying !
