Summary

At the May 6 meeting the Board of Selectmen reorganized after recent elections, appointing Jason Price chair and Ralph Kaye clerk, and appointed five residents to a search committee to review town administrator candidates.

North Brookfield — The Board of Selectmen, meeting after an election that added two members, reorganized Thursday and appointed a five‑member search committee to review town administrator resumes.

Selectmen announced the two newly elected board members, Jamie Gilman and Ralph Kaye, and then conducted a reorganization vote. Jason Price was nominated and approved as chair; Ralph Kaye was approved as clerk.

The board then appointed a town administrator search committee to review applications and resumes. The appointees named at the meeting were Karen Hubeck, Robert Filakowski, Holly Koloski, Joe Trenikoski and James Messerielo. Selectmen said all appointees should be sworn in at the town clerk’s office before beginning committee work; the town clerk was not in attendance, and appointees were told to go to the clerk to be sworn when she is available.

Selectmen discussed the committee size and noted they received several resumes; one selectman said the town needed a strong effort to vet candidates and expressed support for the chosen members. The board said the committee will receive the resumes and start its work once sworn.

No further action was taken at the meeting beyond the appointments and organizational votes.
