Select Board nominates town health officer; stipend and certification noted
Summary
The Select Board nominated and approved a town health officer (transcript records the applicant as 'Makila Thierry' and later as 'Mikaela Darien'), noted a $600 annual stipend and outlined certification requirements for the role.
The Tamworth Select Board nominated a town health officer at its meeting and approved the nomination by roll call.
Board members said there was one applicant for the post, identified in the meeting record first as “Makila Thierry” and later in the motion as “Mikaela Darien.” A presenting board member explained the appointment process: the board nominates, the commissioner appoints, the nominee takes a three-hour certification course and then completes annual continuing education credits. The role carries an annual stipend discussed in the motion of $600.
A board member moved to nominate the applicant and included the stipend in the motion; the motion was seconded and approved by roll call. Board members thanked the outgoing long-serving health officer and welcomed the new appointee.
The transcript records slight inconsistency in the applicant’s name; the board’s action at the meeting was to forward the nomination and confirm the stipend and certification expectations before the appointee assumes duties.
