During their Feb. 2 monthly meeting, the West Marlborough supervisors had high praise for their road crew's dedicated performance during the January blizzard.
Supervisor Bill Wylie said although many small townships contract out their snow removal, "we've always thought we're the kind of community who likes to know who's doing the work." He said the road crew "takes special pride in doing a good job ... I think our residents appreciate it."
Tom Brosius of Marlboro Mushrooms told the supervisors he greatly appreciated the road crew's timely help so that his employees could get to the farm safely.
In other business, Supervisor Hugh Lofting said he is continuing to work on getting a grant from a program that targets "dirt, gravel and low-volume roads" (defined as less than 500 cars a day). The money would go toward stabilizing a steep bank along Rokeby Road that slopes down to the Buck Run. Residents have brought the problem to the supervisors' attention several times in recent years.
