The hearing notice was read aloud into the record in accord with posting requirements. <br />Correspondence was contained in the Select Board's information packet from Adele Horwitz dated November 13, <br />2023 regarding the proposed change of speed limit. There is currently no speed limit, nor signage. There are no <br />sidewalks in this residential area. The roads are hilly, with many turns, and no stop signs. Reducing the speed <br />limit would increase the safety of the residents and children. <br />Town Manager Rodney C. Collins indicated the road areas of discussion are private ways. Pursuant to M.G.L., <br />Chapter 90, § 18, the Select Board has the authority to issue a speed limit. A signed petition has been received, and <br />there is no objection from the residents. The residents have conducted due diligence articulating the problem in an <br />organized manner. <br />The hearing was opened to solicit comment. <br />Connie Baker, Renee Circle stated the worst offenders are the delivery vehicles. A posted speed limit may <br />dissuade people from using the road areas as a pass through to and from Route 151. <br />Being no further comment, the Select Board took the following action. <br />Motion made by Selectman Sherman to close the Public Hearing. <br />Motion seconded by Selectman O'Hara. <br />VOTE: Unanimous. 5-0. <br />Roll Call Vote: <br />Selectman Cotton, yes Selectman O'Hara, yes Selectman Sherman, yes <br />Selectman Weeden, yes Selectman Wyman -Colombo, yes Opposed, none <br />
