Orleans transportation panel defers Mill Lane safety action pending research on condominium tree plantings. Committee members Peter Allgeier, Chair; DPW Deputy Director Calvin Sutton; Planning Director George Meservey; and Police Vice Chair Scott MacDonald discussed dangerous overgrowth at the Beach Road intersection but determined further study is required before recommendations can proceed.
