Controversial Retaining Wall Tops Selectmen’s Agenda

The Board of Selectmen will get an update Monday night about one of the most controversial neighborhood issues in recent memory.

During the Monday selectmen’s meeting, Town Administrator Greg Balukonis will report back to the board about a meeting concerning the 7-foot retaining wall being built on Bishops Way. Balukonis and other town officials met with the property owner and builder last week in hopes of coming to a compromise that would make the wall more acceptable to the neighbors. 

Neighbors to the property have been vocal in their displeasure with the retaining wall being built as part of the new home’s septic system. They have also spoken about communication problems with town officials.

The discussion is supposed to take place at 7:30 p.m.

Another agenda item of note is a discussion about Balukonis’ performance evaluation, which is supposed to take place right after the Bishops Way agenda item. 

The meeting is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m.
