Clerk reports hires, election prep and town‑meeting warrant reminders
Summary
The town clerk reported two new hires, voter-file cleanup, soon-to-be-mailed lien notices, live-streaming of meetings and distributed town‑meeting handouts; the board reviewed articles on a road bond, a cemetery article, and a referendum vs. open town‑meeting article.
The Clerk (Speaker 6) reported the appointment of two hires (Audrey Swayze and Chris Marson, with Audrey promoted to deputy clerk), ongoing training, and preparation of the town report and materials for the upcoming town meeting and municipal election. The Clerk said the Secretary of State has completed a purge of inactive voters and the office is removing those voter cards from the local file while checking for inaccuracies.
The Clerk said a 30-day notice of impending liens will be mailed at month-end and that the office has begun live‑streaming meetings to YouTube and is migrating the town website to a new platform that will support added functionality such as multi-business listings. The board discussed town-meeting handouts prepared by a Selectman that summarize budget changes and provide quick-reference tabs for articles.
The Chair also reminded the board of MSAD 17 district meeting and referendum dates (district meeting May 20; referendum June 10). The transcript contains no substantive town clerk controversies; items were reported for board awareness and follow-up.
