SEPTEMBER 20 |

On June 27, 2023, in Executive Session, the Select Board discussed the condition of the gazebo that is (was) on the Townshend Common. After Executive Session, they voted to “close it down”. An emergency meeting was then held on June 29 to approve demolishing the Gazebo based on the fact that it was considered unsafe. Due to significant public outcry, for a variety of reasons, a second special meeting, properly warned, was held on July 5 so that townspeople would have a better opportunity to speak to the issue. At that meeting a committee was formed to explore all possible options for repair or replacement. Below are the meeting minutes from that committee. Meetings will continue in to 2024. |
In addition, as part of the discussion on what to do about the gazebo, the “ownership” of the Townshend Common was researched, descendants of the original family (owners) were contacted, and the common was deeded over to the town. The “Common Resolution” as passed by the Select Board is located here, and the Quit Claim Deed, or the property transfer as it might otherwise be called, is located here. |
