Old business:

Supervisor Keding stated that there is no Old business.

Reports and Presentations:

Highway Superintendent Telaak reported on the following:
  Highway department had been busy plowing snow after significant
  snowfall and wind. Reminded residents that Christmas trees left by the
  road need to be called in to Waste Management for pickup.
  Stated that highway taxes pay for all highways in Town, not just those
  directly in front of residents' homes. Crestwood Circle, a one-lane dirt
  road that was never built to Town specifications or dedicated to the
  Town, comparing it to other private roads in Boston where residents pay
  highway taxes but don't receive Town plowing services.
