CANTON — Petitions for four ordinances to be included on the annual town meeting warrant are not legal as written, selectmen Chairman Shane Gallant advised at Thursday’s board meeting.

Chris Dailey gave the petitions to the board April 24. They ask voters at the annual town meeting in June whether they want to have the town develop ordinances for governing wind power projects, recalling elected officials, electing a fire chief, and getting voter approval for purchases exceeding $5,000.

The board suggested Dailey meet with Town Clerk Kathy Walker to get the petitions properly written.

Lisa Cummings also presented a petition from the Recreation Committee that asks voters at the June town meeting to dispose of the ice rink. The petition was to go to Walker for proper wording.

Cummings said the committee wanted to gravel over the rink for a parking lot.

The annual town meeting is at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, June 12, at the fire station on Route 108.

The Anasagunticook Lake Association requested to have bricks from the old fire station to build walkways at the boat launch. No action was taken because no one from the association was at Thursday’s meeting to provide more details.

Gallant directed Town Administrator Scotty Kilbreth to find a realtor to put the fire station land on the market.

No decision was made on using Maine Animal Damage Control in Lewiston until it could be determined if shelter fees were included. Selectman Rob Walker said he would check on that and report at the next meeting.

Rebecca Skibitsky, community outreach representative for Patriot Renewables LLC of Quincy, Mass., attended the meeting to learn about Dailey’s petition for a wind power ordinance.

Patriot Renewables has a permit to build eight wind turbines on Canton Mountain. The $47 million project would be developed on 1,000 acres of leased land.

Dailey said he wanted assurance that the company has a plan should the project fail.

Skibitsky said there is an exit plan.

In other matters, the board discussed food waste and other garbage from Victorian Villa Rehabilitation and Living Center placed into the compactor at the Transfer Station. The board directed Kilbreth to ask an official from the nursing home to attend the next meeting.

The board voted to allow Duane Conant to continue to mow the flood plain in the former village area, pending paperwork from the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Conant mows it for hay.

In 2005, town officials made plans to relocate government buildings and about 60 homes on the Androscoggin River flood plains due to frequent spring flooding. The town bought the properties.

Also Thursday, Colby Davis requested to erect a flag pole at the Canton Dam site and selectmen said they had no objection.

Davis said he has enough flags to put on veterans’ graves this year but presented the board with an order for more for the future.
