WOODSTOCK — Town Manager Vern Maxfield said Wednesday he is drafting policy qualifications for being named on the veterans memorial in front of the Whitman Memorial Library.

“I’m in the process of putting it together right now, and once I’m finished, the selectmen will vote on it,” Maxfield said.

Selectmen discussed the policy at their meeting Tuesday night.

In 2012, residents voted to raise $6,000 to help fund a new veterans monument. The current one is filled with names, and another is needed to list veterans who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, and those who have recently been identified.

At the Sept. 2 selectmen’s meeting, resident and veteran Tom Hartford said he believed there should be clarification on who qualifies to have their name inscribed on the monument.

The Daughters of Union Veterans of the Civil War said at a previous meeting they are ready to begin crafting the monument and are waiting for the town to give them the go-ahead.

In other business at Tuesday’s meeting, a Gore Road landowner was granted permission to allow two residents to use his property to remove their boats from North Pond, Maxfield said.

“North Pond, which is mostly in Woodstock and partially in Greenwood, doesn’t have a good boat access,” he said. “Last fall (the Maine Department of Transportation) closed the one right off of Route 26, and people couldn’t get in and out because they said it was unsafe. They ended up opening it up again so people could get their boats out of North Pond, but the water near that particular boat access is too low to pull out bigger boats.”

Maxfield said a couple of residents with bigger boats approached a Gore Road landowner about using his boat access to remove their boats.

“Right now, the residents are working with the Gore Road landowner to get their boats out of North Pond,” Maxfield said.
