Commission considers appointment of Eric Quantrano to regional communications board, then moves to executive session
Summary
The commission moved and seconded a nomination to appoint Eric Quantrano to the Knox Regional Communication Center executive board for a two-year term; discussion noted the users group's prior selection process and the record does not include a final vote tally before the meeting entered executive session under personnel statute.
The commission considered a motion on Jan. 10 to appoint nominee Eric Quantrano to the Knox Regional Communication Center executive board for a two-year term beginning Jan. 1, 2026, and ending Dec. 31, 2027. The chair asked for a motion; one commissioner moved and another seconded the appointment.
During discussion, a commissioner asked what department Quantrano represented and was told he is the new chief in Thomaston. A speaker noted that the user-group executive board had met and selected Quantrano, so the action on the commission's agenda was a formal acknowledgement of that selection.
The chair then called for a vote, but the transcript does not include a formal tally of that vote. Immediately afterward, the commission voted to convene an executive session under 30-A M.R.S. §4056-A to discuss employment, appointment and personnel matters. The chair later reconvened the public meeting and said that nothing from the executive session would be added to the public agenda.
Because the transcript does not record a final public tally for the Quantrano appointment, the public record in this transcript does not confirm the vote outcome.
