Budget Committee pushes asphalt street program and Bay View upgrades
The Budget Committee urges a long range maintenance plan for compact town highways and seeks $32,000 to asphalt High Street. It also calls for $58,000 to curb drain and widen Bay View Avenue and resurfacing from Metacom Avenue to High Street, borrowing $90,000 over five years. A coupon vote on Mt Hope Battery naming is discussed amid post office site moves and colonial architecture requests. The town considers a new post office on State Street and contemplates the fate of the old building.
