ALFORD — Select Board unanimously approves metal roof in slate color for Town Hall at $11,000. Chair Charles Ketchen, board member Peggy Rae Henden-Wilson, and member Peter Puciloski backed the lower-cost metal option over a $13,000 membrane after Highway Department Head Monty Green consulted with Architectural Heritage District Commission Chair Alice Halstead. The board deferred removal of shingles from a stone foundation behind the highway garage, citing the need for asbestos testing before any work begins.

Egremont's request for financial commitment to a regional transportation system remains unresolved, with Ketchen and Henden-Wilson expressing reluctance to commit without details on services and resident costs.
