Lakeville Select Board names vice chair, updates Economic Development Committee charge and fills committee seats
Summary
At its July 14 meeting the Select Board appointed Lorraine Carbone as vice chair, updated the economic development committee charge and appointed representatives from the finance and planning boards; the board also appointed John Gregory to the Energy Advisory Committee.
The Town of Lakeville Select Board on July 14 appointed Lorraine Carbone as vice chair, voted to revise the Economic Development Committee charge, and approved three committee appointments with terms expiring July 31, 2026.
Select Board chair Candido opened nominations for vice chair after a member vacancy. "I would like to nominate Lorraine Carbone as vice chair," said Hunt; Candido seconded the nomination. The board voted by roll call with Carbone, Candido and Hunt recording aye votes, and the motion passed.
The board then considered a revision to the Economic Development Committee charge to adjust membership and to clarify the status of associate members. Town Administrator Andrew described the proposed change: because the Finance Committee and Planning Board would each name a representative, the committee would keep seven voting members and reduce the number of associate members. A motion to adopt the amended charge, including language clarifying that associate members are nonvoting, passed on roll call.
Following that action the Select Board voted to appoint Lawrence (Larry) Constant as the Finance Committee's representative to the Economic Development Committee and to appoint Daniel Wilga as the Planning Board's representative; both appointments are set to expire 07/31/2026. Board members noted the appointments maintain cross-representation from standing boards and committees.
The board also voted to appoint John Gregory to the Energy Advisory Committee (term to expire 07/31/2026) after the committee's charge was finalized and membership reduced from seven to five.
Each appointment was made by motion and approved by unanimous roll-call votes of the members present. The board did not set additional conditions for the appointments beyond the term dates announced in the motions.
The board's actions were taken during the regular Select Board meeting conducted remotely under the provisions referenced at the start of the session.
