Burgess Rittelmeyer opened discussion on the safety of the slurry seal product that was used on the streets. This was a question he was asked during the July town meeting. It is totally safe and is used by Frederick County on streets just outside the town limits. Commissioner Boyer reported it is a water-based product that passes MDE standards.
There being no further business, a motion to close the meeting was passed 4 – 0.
