Paul named chair, Letty named vice chair as board marks veteran member's final year
Summary
The Select Board elected Paul to be chair and Letty to be vice chair after a long-serving member announced this will be his final year. The board agreed to procedural changes to allow members of the public to speak on agenda items after presentations.
The Select Board elected Paul as chair and selected Letty as vice chair at the start of the meeting after a long-serving member said this would be his last year on the board.
An outgoing member said, "After 17 years, I've decided that this will be my last year," then nominated Paul for chair; the board confirmed the nomination by roll-call vote. Paul thanked the board for the trust and said he will solicit public input and asked commenters to keep remarks focused given a heavy agenda.
The board also discussed a procedural change to allow members of the public to speak to specific agenda items after presentations, with the caveat that comments remain focused and brief. Board members indicated they may move the general public-comment portion later in the agenda for the next meeting and will publish procedural guidance.
