Dodi Thompson, Chris Smith, Jeffrey Rackliff, Josh Markham
  • Opened and distributed mail.
  • Road report: Nothing new at this time. Still dealing with the “beaver situation”. We may need to have them trapped and relocated, which can be a costly proposition. Chris has spoken with the Maine State biologist and was given contact information in regards to having them trapped.
  • Discussed the mailing of 30 notices for liens of 2012 taxes. Discussed the need for sending a pre letter to those who owed small amounts – under $20 or so.
  • Read and approved minutes from previous meeting.
  • Updated tax maps are available at viennamaine.org as well as yorkhillsurveying.com. This allows residents and professionals to access town maps 24/7.
  • Josh Markham inquired about the gate across near Carhill and Berry Hill Road. After looking at the maps of Vienna, Markham was referred to the town of Mt. Vernon, as to whether the road is discontinued or still open (since it originates in Mt. Vernon and that town would have control over closing the road.
  • A drilling rig was on the (posted) Besse Road on April 23. The cell phone tower company ordered test holes to be drilled on the property of the proposed cell tower which may be going in from the Besse Road. The drilling company contacted Dan Goucher, Road Commissioner. (The town is able to give permission for overweight vehicles to operate on posted roads).

Meeting adjourned at 9:40 PM.
