Now that we, the taxpayers, have closed on the Foodtown site for $6.1 million, I would like to ask the administration who will be responsible for any injuries or accidents that may occur on that property while they figure out what to do with the site.
Many people use this site to meet, carpool, shortcut through, skateboard as well as the parking for faculty, staff and parents at St. Thomas School.
If a child slips and falls or a car is vandalized, who pays the legal fees?
If there is a car accident in that lot, will my taxes go up again?
The town needs to act quickly on their decisions for the property, as well as post signs and/or fence off the lot to all trespassers.
The Foodtown site is an accident waiting to happen.
