A special select board meeting was held earlier this week

WEST BURKE — A special select board meeting was held earlier this week to discuss plans for a new town garage further. Town officials say they need to have a shared vision of garage needs in mind when they next meet with representatives from St. Albans-based Cross Consulting Engineers. The meeting on Tuesday included selectmen Jerry Booth and Mark Daigle, along with Road Foreman Dave Kaufman and Town Administrator Jim Sullivan. The town’s third select board member, Joe Allard, was not in attendance. The consulting firm has been working with officials, taking suggestions and creating building designs. Later this month, the project engineers and the select board will meet, hoping to draw even closer to the final design plan. The most recent design, provided on Aug. 8, shows a six-bay garage with an extension for offices, a restroom and a breakroom. In total, it measures 150 feet long by 60 feet wide.
