for the last meeting i volunteered to update the traffic ordinance wish on in my mind should usually be an annual thing the whole thing should be updated so i can back spend some time going through it looking for this draft and let me emphasize it's a draft and not something that we're trying to implement tonight but something we're trying to talk about and it's something i've been thinking about since last year and only intended to do and then got distracted and do it which was to position and it is something that is up for discussion and i want to be clear tonight that was never my intention to come in here and remove all parking is my intention of coming here and discuss it i will say that received more comments on this in the long enough with making it easy to go swimming at the hunting or specifically the gorge area i think that town just the town recognizing that there's private private property around that area should do what they can of that that is you know natural whatever poses and again i'm not trying to ram this through i'm not trying to come here and stand my ground and you know get angry really just want to have this discussion i know this was had a few ignored i'm going to recommend that we separate the two way terms at least for this question purposes because section three talks this was the original issue that members of the public came to select were about which was the some of the smaller struggles like tilden avenue is where i live is noticeably absent even though the other suites like baker street just present people standing in the hall and coming in the door we have plenty of folding chairs over here don't be bashful positive and i'm not sure that i'm putting up a hard band i'm done plays going to them and i wonder if there's some other things we can discuss things we could try that might help solve that issue began around the gorge area within walking distance would to discourage people from parking on the side of the road out of the roadway on the right of way and walking to the gorge to use it up to you i just ask that you keep your initial statements somewhat creepy want everybody to get a chance before we go back to the same person repeatedly and just for ease of jeff's note taking i ask that you state your name  work i don't know what we can do to stop the individuals who take those kinds of risks from taking them and was one thing trying to keep anybody from ever entering the words again which i think we have the authority to do and if we did there would be a second question about is that the right thing to do so i think do want to add to what i'm hearing is we can also better force current you know ordinance and guidelines right now and i and i was i like the idea to care right up about having the land trust kerry and a few other people sit down and talk about better signage parking opportunities come back and some ideas to move forward so we want to we were talking about moving forward with the commission to really outline some of these ideas about where we put science we don't put signs to encourage parking and also to come up with some ideas about how we can  add more parking and i make it safer for everyone so who's going to volunteer to be on the other person we really would love to have the property owner to me and trust you know i've heard not just safety of people in the up or the word but driving and parking safety for people using the river safely of one so it sort of evolved i think  this section of the proposed ordinance is going away after this meeting i'm so people don't have to worry about that but terms of the ideas that have come up can be handled by staff as we approach the next road and you know if there's if there's science to  this proposed emissions about brainstorming solutions for traffic flow arcade signage you know that's i mean if you want to commission that's fine but those are proposals that can be developed by staff and we can be better be brought back before th to set a public hearing for august third twenty fifth it really needs to be august seventeenth but we have to act as for today august seventeenth so we can question is what if if the wind over ship wasn't an issue would you prefer the solution you're proposing or the engineered sort of because i guess thing it's like if this is going to happen and it seems to be like at a place where just right so to do i was just going to ask if we think we have a clear direction and for the engineer it seems like there's a couple of variables and you can come back to that funds just so people know is that because if it's timely that the rainy day reserve currently has sixty six thousand one hundred nineteen dollars we do have about a twenty thousand dollars lean on the border property for when we cleaned it up meeting carol bellamy offered to work with mr trimble it to find private solutions to parking and also some other logistical issues and i know mr originally were i've also been told that he plans to charge an entrance fee to cover the bus fare and donate the extra proceeds to the chill foundation  so he's trying to make this into a charity event where the participants have something more than than fun and warranted that it's worth it for a worthy cause that being said i think the town's position should really reign the same as it always has been at the last meeting we basically settled that we were going to intervene to try to solve these issues it's going to be another day in richmond there's going to be a lot of people here floating down the river know i just read a state of vermont permit a public safety response to the plane on which there were a lot of holes identified and i did see the correspondence from the event planner it didn't really provide a lot of details about how those holes were going to be fixed and i i'm glad that we're not going to be participating at all in the sabbat i do know there is an event going on at the round church there's a line right  typically typically in the dark if somebody had an event that was approved you would assume that they would take care of these things this is going to bend the boards not approving it really comes down on my mind do you have any objection to them doing that come my man we are currently looking for they did not meet july seventeenth and that was due to vacations and we got a poll out there to try and try to find another july date i haven't heard yet because there are some of the restaurants in town where there are some people that might be interested in other businesses as well right that's going to be they figure out or we are and we're going to be putting more advertisement out over the next few weeks to recruit to take you think right now we need one we had a really strong group and some people moved her to life in recruiting again right so two weeks ago we put another ok like the new the works in progress it's been updated the way we do have a quite a few construction projects going on the water tower water were scorched tank is being constructed the budget status reports i think we entered into the year fairly well with the budgets not finalized but i take tax collection is close to where we're expected to be  we didn't have other than what's in the highway department again to fit ministration contracts line operationally we did really well the further discussion you know this is a small thing i was just struck a uniform traffic ticket revenue right yeah thousand i think one of those is a significant overweight credit ten thousand dollars which it's like the lottery we have a couple of them it is because they together remediation plan for some of the environmental contamination and then they'll be putting together a development plan they will in august bill work on  do as far as getting rid of the contamination in the buildings and then the city from the state permit to do that will seek from the town to listen permit to demolish the building and then they work on some of what they term public input on what the town might like to see is that development keep in mind that it's going to be along similar lines that david raffi all presented in two thousand twelve which is a mixed use development with senior housing and commercial space have no idea what it's going to look like they don't have a final play in themselves but in terms of certain commercial uses i think they'd like to feel people out see how well the right ideas are going to be received but from all indications are good looks like it's positive and eventually they'll close on property i think that's very hopeful there is cross yeah great thank you nice main street the barn was passed that project will be a summer two thousand thirty six inch culvert we don't know whether that's good or not or whether it's better than it was before it's a private call work we do have a public interest with the water line but it's probably better than what was there before i don't know how much detail is going to get involved in the water so a commission directed me to start developing a claim with  based on the direct cost of the water line repair with also considering staff time in materials but not a claim for  yes the public safety committee in your package is a letter from the plane commission recommending the state select board take your action on future planning for virgin see services we should pay things this is a receipt and the other thing is i would like to see a more formal process probably just a small piece of paper and they want washburn so it's an extension of the church there's an existing house and driveway so that's what i see is there right now they're going to subdivide bill additional
