  5. Discussed with a town resident an issue with ditching on Klir Beck Road. Heavy rains have created issues with some of the ditches near Flying Pond. An on sight meeting is planned for selectmen, Vienna’s road commissioner, a representative from 30 Mile River, and a rep from Kennebec County Water and Soil Conservation to discuss the situation. Due to the instability of the ditches, sand has been washing in to the streams and Flying Pond. (It was determined that rock dams and plunge pools need to be added to the ditches.)
