Mailbox Replacement Policy

On December 5, 2005 the Selectmen set a policy to not be responsible for mailboxes that are within the right-of-way that are damaged by plowing. The Town does have a limited supply of temporary mailboxes available at the Town Garage for citizens whose mailboxes have been damaged by plowing. These temporary boxes are loaned out through the winter.
