collected in recent years. It was averaged that about 436 tires are picked up each year in the past 
seven years, excluding 2025 and 2022 when no tires were picked up. 2026 total pickups to date are 
939 tires. The amount of pickup will be monitored. Selectman Kelly noted tires with rims will not 
be picked up by the recycler, and about a dozen tires have been left at the Transfer Station. The 
board felt the Town should stop excepting tires with rims due to the work needed to remove the 
rims. Mary Heath asked if that decision required a public hearing. Chair Hoyt noted transfer 
station fees were changed depending on the amount of cost to the Town and did not require a 
public hearing. Ken Egounis on zoom, stated “Tires with out rims period, make a public notice.” 
Selectman Hostetler motioned to change the Transfer Station Fee Schedule to not include 
tires with rims.  
Selectman Kelly seconded the motion, which passed unopposed.

email. TA Rollins will ask the representative about that. Nathan Irving, on zoom, stated “I would 
absolutely support a single point of email contact for the selectmen & other official committees and roles
