Alford Select Board discovers major property ownership issue complicating ADA walkway plan. The Board designated three light post locations near the town's school building and reviewed Highway Department cost estimates of approximately $19,000 for broom brushed concrete finish, with stained and stamped concrete costs nearly double.
