Pembroke superintendent says vocational regionalization has six member‑town approvals; Rockland voted no
Summary
The superintendent reported the district secured the six member‑town votes required to join a regional vocational plan but said Rockland cast the lone no vote, reportedly over concerns about how seats would be allocated.
The superintendent updated the committee on vocational regionalization: the district has secured the necessary six member‑town votes to join the regional vocational plan, with Rockland reported as the only town to vote no.
The superintendent said the Rockland no vote followed unanswered questions at that town’s meeting about how many seats the town could potentially lose; a vocational representative (Tom Hickey) was not present at that meeting to respond to the question. The superintendent and Tom Hickey plan to attend the upcoming town meeting to answer vocational and budget questions.
The report did not record any formal motions or changes to local policy; it was an informational update to the committee.
