Overview: During the recent Blandford Select Board meeting, attention was focused on addressing electrical work in the salt shed, staffing in the highway department, and a library planning grant. With a $5,889 quote from Zenetti Electric for essential repairs in the salt shed, including non-functional lighting and absent electrical outlets, the board deliberated funding this project through the winter and snow budget. The members discussed the feasibility of using a traditional light switch over motion-activated lights due to concerns about the latter’s reliability in the salt shed environment. The decision to move forward with the quote was contingent upon further assessment of the lighting control options.
