On Tuesday, July 12, at the Town of Webb board meeting, town Attorney Richard Frye introduced a proposal brought to the board by Town of Webb property owners Donald Gooley, David Gribneau and John Johnson.
Represented by George Villiere, these property owners wish to cut driveways to their, as of yet, undeveloped properties which are located along the stretch of Route 28 that runs to the side of Fourth Lake.
In the past, The Town of Webb has denied permission for driveways in this area because, it argues, Snowmobile Trail 5 is located along this corridor and unregulated traffic across the trail would cause an unreasonable safety hazard.
Gooley, Gribneau, and Johnson have presented a new proposal to the Town of Webb board, where Snowmobile Trail 5 would be diverted, presumably at a cost to the property owners, so that it runs behind their properties.
Town Attorney Richard Frye, however, said he questions the feasibility of the proposal. At the least, there are a lot of details that would have to be worked out, he said.
The board intends to consider further the proposal of the property owners to see if an agreeable solution can be reached.
