Township engineer Al Giannantonio said he followed up on a resident's complaint in June about the lack of yard maintenance at a bank-owned, long-vacant house at the corner of Sportsmans Lane and Street Road. He said the bank's maintenance vendor, Safeguard Properties, assured him that the property would be cleaned up by mid-June. It wasn't. He said he will check with the township's solicitor to see what actions he should take next.
The woman who lives next door to the overgrown house was at the July meeting and thanked the supervisors for following up. She had the same problem last year as well.
I stopped by the house on Saturday morning and this is what I saw. There's a sharp line of demarcation from the neighbors' neatly tended lawns.
Mr. Giannantonio also said that there were no zoning permits issued in June and no subdivision or land development plans were submitted; in fact, the July planning commission meeting was cancelled for lack of business.
Robert Clarke, the East Marlborough police chief who spends 40 hours a month patrolling West Marlborough, reported that he investigated 13 incidents and issued eight speeding tickets, two stop-sign violations, two parking tickets and three warnings.
The supervisors rescheduled their public hearing on the amended zoning ordinance until 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 4.
