If you
want to help the Town, RECYCLE.
Yes, recycling efforts have increased since single stream recycling went
into effect but we can do better. If
all homeowners put out more recyclables than trash the recycling fee’s
coming back to the town would increase.
It costs the Town $92/ton
for disposal but the Town makes $22/ton for recycling.
Help bring revenue back to the town by recycling, recycling, recycling.

The Empty Delegas Buildings
Delagas submitted a Request for Determination of
Applicability and went before the Con Com on 14 April 2010. He received a
positive 3 determination which means he has to file a Notice of Intent before
he can get an Order of Conditions. There are still a number of questions and
concerns outstanding. The integrity of the culvert under the Brick Grille
building is in question. Delegas has some work to do before he can demolish
the buildings. It doesn’t look like the buildings will be coming down anytime
soon.
