CEO REPORT:

Duane spoke with Matt Eaton about site work on Stone Turtle Rd. Made plans to go over and take a look. Tonya Prime called to discuss plumbing work being done at her house that needed to be inspected. Duane notified her that the town had not received any permit applications for any plumbing work. Prime said she would check on that. Duane received a forwarded email from Shawn Carter about repair to shoreland damage- asked him for the address. It is time for Hayden Torrey to have the annual license renewed at TNT auto Salvage. Duane noted that it was neat and organized not hazardous material around, all should be fine for renewal. Lastly, Duane received an email from attorney James Driscoll at Rudman Winchell in regard to the consent agreement with B. Peasley of 38 Orcutt Lane on Black Pond. Duane discussed with the Selectboard the proposed agreement and will be in communication about tightening up the language.
