DIXFIELD — The Dixfield Economic Development Council is back to square one, selectmen learned Monday night, when Selectman Norine Clarke said the moose planned for purchase to replace Bullrock has been sold.

Clarke said she learned that a scale model moose owned by Pam West, owner of a Farmington candy shop, has been sold. The town’s economic council had planned to buy it at a cost of about $2,000.

Clarke said the group will continue its plans to raise money to have another moose created by a woodcarver.

Bullrock, a popular feature that has welcomed visitors to the town from the village park, was blown over and destroyed a few weeks ago.

Clarke said the committee will replace Bullrock once enough money has been raised. The cost to have another life-size moose carved is estimated at about $5,000.

A variety of fundraisers, including the sale of “The Moose is Loose” T-shirts, will be held at the Outdoor Market sale set for Aug. 21. Clarke said donations are also being accepted.

In other matters on Monday, selectmen set a special meeting for 5 p.m., Aug. 23, at Ludden Memorial Library, to hear a presentation by Mike Rogers, a State Revenue Service representative, who will speak on the impact of tax incentive financing.

The presentation is the result of a proposal by Patriot Renewables LLC to build an industrial wind farm along the Colonel Holman Mountain ridgeline.

Also on Monday, the board:

* Heard a request from Public Works foreman David Phair to use the pavilion in McGouldrick Park as a storage building for highway equipment. He was instructed to bring costs for enclosing the structure to the next meeting on Sept. 12.

* Approved the purchase of a new truck that will be used for plowing parking lots and other areas not suitable for the town’s plowing truck at a cost of $49,500, minus trade-in.

* Approved the purchase of five new handguns for the Dixfield Police Department. The department will also buy four holsters to fit the Springfield .45 caliber revolvers.

* Heard a request by Peru resident Dwight Hines for detailed Dixfield Fire Co. training records. He was directed to request the records from fire Chief Scott Dennett.
