Park plans seek 100 amp service and new pole splits
McCallum seeks upgrading mobile home park electrical service from 60 to 100 amps with each unit fed by a separate pole. New England Telephone had refused service in 1972 due to subdivision violations but town intervention last summer granted service in the approved park section. Fire hydrants and street markers would be added. soil erosion and sediment control pose the main hurdle. A soil test delay may lead to alternate erosion assessment methods. A planning board work session is set to review the proposal with new members Hiowe Barstow and chairman Geyer.
