Do we need a $316,000 traffic circle? Warrant article 10 provides:
10. To see if the Town will vote to raise and appropriate the sum of $316,000 to complete the construction of a roundabout at the intersection of Knox Road, White Rock Hill Hill Road and Logging Hill Road, originally approved at the 2010 Town Meeting, and to authorize the withdrawal of up to $316,000 from the Highway Construction Capital Reserve Fund for this purpose.
This is a non-lapsing appropriation and will not lapse until completion of the project or June 30, 2019.
This is the circle shown on the Government Center Complex plan. That money could be used for other public highway needs as opposed to a want. [click for larger view]
