What's important ⁠this week

The Springfield Board of Selectmen took immediate action regarding heavy vehicle traffic causing damage to Sanborn Hill Road. Following testimony from the Swenson family and Jeff Remillard, the board ordered a road crew inspection and mandated a ⁠20 MPH speed limit to mitigate further harm.

Zoning and housing compliance emerged as a secondary theme during the meeting. The board approved a report detailing seven active violations and issued a 30-day deadline to Warren George to bring an ⁠unregistered trailer into compliance with minimum housing standards.

Residents should monitor the results of the mandated road inspection to see if further mitigation is required. Additionally, keep an eye on whether the ⁠30-day compliance deadlines for local housing and traffic issues are met before the next session.
