TOWN OF HALIFAX, VERMONT
SPECIAL MEETING MINUTES
October 16, 2025
7:30 AM AT 65 CLARK ROAD – HALIFAX
Edee Edwards called the meeting to order at 7:31 am. Other selectboard members present were Karen Christofferson, Randy Pike, Rhonda Ashcraft and Lori Marchegiani. Also present was Keith Stone, Chuck Cunningham and Kyle Farnsworth.
NEW BUSINESS:
Edwards explained that this meeting has been called to address the turn around spot for highway department equipment (snowplow) at the end of this road.
We are looking at specifically where the snow plow turns around. As stated by Stone the plow truck proceeds up Clark Road to the end and then swings left pushing snow out of the way as well as straight forward, (where there are currently two abandoned pickup trucks). Stone also pushes snow to the right where there is currently junk, debris, tires, disabled motorcycle, etc. Stone also stated that the 11’ plow needs room to turn around and that currently the junk has encroached into the area needed to turn the plow truck around. Stone has stated that he has pushed the snow back as far as he could but as the snow season progresses there is additional snow piling up and that makes turn around more difficult. He is unable to push snow back because of the current junk situation. The road to the left goes to a residence and the Town cannot block that road with snow.
Chuck Cunningham has agreed to relocate the two pickups (on town trail) that are in the area where the town needs to push snow to. He also agreed to remove junk to the right to expand that area for the Town to push back snow.
Pike offered Cunningham the number to a person who may be able to come and help pick up junk and haul away.
Cunningham agreed to the timeline of November 15, 2025, to address the above listed items. One or more Selectboard members will attend with Pike, being the coordinator.
Edwards reminded Cunningham of the town junk ordinance and the need to abide by that.
Marchegiani moved we adjourn the meeting, Christofferson seconded.
Motion approved 5-0.
Meeting adjourned at 7:54 am.
