Summary
Commissioner Mitchell reported a growing fleet of tractor-trailers parking at the golf course lot, blocking Golfview where families and kids cross, despite a town ordinance banning commercial vehicles in residential areas. The manager noted there's no full-service truck stop in Cumberland County, which drives the problem. The mayor directed code enforcement and police to contact the property owner.
