At the Fryeburg Select Board's April 19th meeting, efforts to continue meeting with the Planning Board and the Fryeburg Water District trustees regarding updates to the 2007 EGGI Aquifer Study were stalled. According to Conway Daily Sun reporter Brett Guerringue, Select Board members Janice Crawford and Kimberly Clarke disagreed strongly about whether these meetings should continue. Clarke and fellow board member Tom Klinepeter, who first proposed meeting with the FWD trustees, voted to continue meeting, while members Rick Eastman and Richard Murray voted with Crawford to discontinue talks.
Though no public input was allowed during the decision on 4/19, FWD Trustees, Nels Liljedahl and Greg Huang-Dale had spoken with Crawford, Eastman and Klinepeter at the previous 4/5 meeting. During public comment session of the April 5th meeting, the FWD trustees were positive and complimentary of the work accomplished during the first (and only) meeting of the 3 boards, but that work could not be completed until an agreement about gaps that still remained in the study could be addressed.
At the April 5th meeting, Selectman Klinepeter made a motion to table the issue until the full board could vote, but Crawford and Eastman voted against the motion. Without a quorum no decision was recorded and so the issue was reviewed at the 4/19 meeting.
