A new chapter begins for the Plymouth Committee of Precinct Chairs as they welcomed Kristen Ford as their new administrative assistant during their hybrid meeting on November 21, 2024. Ford, who brings extensive experience from her previous role in Norwell, was introduced to the committee, highlighting her background in community preservation and local government operations.

The meeting kicked off with a pledge of allegiance and a roll call, confirming a quorum with members both in-person and online. Following the formalities, Chair Matt Tavares proposed an amendment to the agenda to introduce Ford, which was unanimously approved through a roll call vote.

Tavares expressed enthusiasm for Ford's arrival, noting her qualifications and the support she will provide in managing meeting minutes and communications. Committee members echoed this sentiment, with several offering warm welcomes and expressing confidence in her ability to assist the committee effectively.

In addition to the introduction of Ford, the committee also approved the minutes from their previous meeting, with a minor correction noted by member Pat. The approval process was smooth, reflecting the committee's collaborative spirit.

As the meeting progressed, members were reminded of the importance of streamlined communication, especially with Ford's part-time role shared with the Community Preservation Act Committee. This strategic move aims to enhance the committee's efficiency and effectiveness in serving the Plymouth community.

The meeting concluded with a sense of optimism about the future, as the committee looks forward to Ford's contributions and the continued collaboration among precinct chairs.
