Summer camp hires approved after board removes medical director from resolution pending resume
Summary
The town board approved most summer camp staffing appointments but voted to remove the listed medical director from the resolution until a resume is supplied; members cited public-safety concerns and asked for prompt documentation before finalizing that appointment.
The board considered Resolution 512, which listed a slate of hires for the 2026 Pleasant Valley summer camp. A board member moved to remove the medical director from the resolution until the town received a resume and background information; the motion passed on roll call.
Supporters of the removal said appointing a medical director who oversees minors at activities with water and off-site trips requires seeing the candidate’s qualifications. Other members said the individual in question had served in related functions previously and that staff might have the resume on file; the board requested the document be supplied as soon as possible or to call a special meeting to finalize the hire.
After the medical-director item was removed pending documentation, the remainder of the camp hires proceeded on the consent agenda. The town asked staff to circulate the resumes for the assistant camp director and the medical director and to consider a special meeting if necessary to complete outstanding personnel approvals.
