Selectmen approve consent agenda, re-elect chair and vice chair in unanimous votes
Summary
The Bow Board of Selectmen approved the consent agenda, elected Selectman McDaniel as chair and Selectwoman Brennan as vice chair, and adjourned the March 18 meeting after unanimous voice votes.
The Bow Board of Selectmen voted unanimously to approve the consent agenda, to elect leadership for the coming year and to adjourn the March 18 meeting.
The board approved the consent agenda — described during the meeting as the warrant for water billing — by voice vote recorded as 5-0. The board later voted 5-0 to elect Selectman McDaniel as board chair and Selectwoman Brennan as vice chair after a nomination and second. The meeting concluded after a motion to adjourn at 6:38 p.m., which also passed by voice vote.
The consent agenda was introduced near the start of the meeting and described as the warrant for water billing. There was no further discussion recorded on that item before the board voted to approve it. A nomination to pair McDaniel and Brennan for the board’s leadership was moved and seconded during the agenda item titled “Election of board chair and vice chair,” and the motion passed without recorded opposition.
No ordinances, resolutions or spending items requiring further public hearings were finalized in those votes. The meeting’s formal votes were limited to routine procedural matters: the consent agenda, leadership appointments and adjournment. No roll-call tallies listing individual member votes beyond the unanimous voice votes were recorded in the transcript.
The board continued other business after the votes, including discussion of town projects and a policy proposal concerning rental and maintenance of town athletic fields.
