JAY — Selectmen will consider the direction the town should take on dangerous buildings and illegal junkyards during Monday’s board meeting.

“We’ve had some complaints on buildings and we need to get into discussion and decide what we’re going to do,” Town Manager Ruth Cushman said Thursday.

The meeting begins at 6 p.m. Nov. 14 at the Town Office.

The board will also open bids on steel. It will also discuss whether the town wants to take over land and a house at 24 Church St. in Jay. The town has been offered the house, which is vacant but said to have trash left from former tenants.

Selectmen will also hear a proposal from Mark Kelvey who is interested in buying a couple of acres from the town’s gravel pit lot off East Jay Road. The land abuts Kelvey’s property, Cushman said.

The Recycling Committee also has a proposal for selectmen to consider.

The committee wants the board to give it the authority to trade, bid, purchase or dispose of surplus property from the transfer station, Cushman said.

For example, the town’s baler is no longer used, she said, so it could be put out to bid.

“We would like to get rid of it,” she said.
