Sagamore Road Resurfacing
At a glance
Based on the official minutes and auto-generated captions; names and figures may be misheard.
- What: petition by Demitrios Voyiatzis (March 31, 2026) to resurface Sagamore Rd. near 53 Sagamore Rd.
- Where it stands: the Public Works Committee recommended leave to withdraw 3-0 on 2026-07-21, because the road is being repaired outside the petition process; the City Council accepted that on 2026-08-18, 9-0.
- Next: pave at least a base course before winter; if Eversource's work slips, a leveling course instead.
Background
- Tony Economou called it a road that "will not survive another year" and did not survive the last winter.
- John K. Westerling said Sagamore Rd. was not on this year's resurfacing schedule and Eversource had not scheduled its utility upgrades. Jay Mello's team met with Eversource and got the utility work moved up so DPW can repave.
- Economou credited both for taking the initiative.
