Summary

SBAS extended the town's deadline to fill an appointed director until April 1 and will vote on any nominee at its April meeting; the Select Board agreed to revisit the liaison scope and job description before reopening recruitment.

An email from SBAS was read at the Jan. 7 meeting: the regional board has extended New Ipswich's deadline to nominate a town‑appointed liaison until April 1, and it plans to vote on any nominee at its April 21 board meeting.

Selectmen said the extension gives them nearly three more months to refine the liaison scope and draft a clear position description before advertising the appointment. The board directed staff to place a scope‑of‑work review on a future agenda so members can agree on duties and selection criteria before re‑opening the position.

Board members expressed appreciation for the extension but said they wanted clearer internal expectations for the liaison role before proceeding. No nomination was made at the meeting.
