Buckfield code enforcement officer to leave in July; town manager outlines succession plan
Summary
Code enforcement officer Kingston plans to resign in July; the town manager said Manny is interested in taking on LPI and code enforcement duties and the town will post vacancies for any gaps.
The town manager told the Buckfield Select Board on June 25 that Kingston, the town’s code enforcement officer (CEO), will resign and that his last day will be in late July. The manager outlined an internal succession plan and steps to ensure continuity of permitting and enforcement services.
Azalea Cormier said Manny has expressed interest in obtaining the Limited Plumbing Inspector (LPI) and code enforcement certifications and could perform the combined duties on a part-time or dual-role basis. Cormier said she has identified additional local resources to assist while the town addresses the certification requirements: code enforcement certification for the LPI role generally must be held before appointment, whereas the code enforcement officer position has a 12-month grace period for required credentials. The manager said she will post the position and meet Kingston and Manny to coordinate a handover and training.
Board members thanked Kingston for his service. No appointment was made on June 25; Cormier said she will follow up with specific posting language and report back to the Select Board on the hiring or appointment timeline.
