West Bath approves amended town administrator and tax collector/town clerk job descriptions
Summary
The Select Board approved amended job descriptions for the town administrator and the tax collector/town clerk after edits to split duties and remove assessing responsibilities that are contracted out; Julie presented the edits.
The West Bath Select Board on Jan. 15 approved amended job descriptions that split duties between the town clerk and the tax collector and removed assessing duties that are contracted out.
Julie, who reviewed the drafts, told the board she had "struck through a few things" and recommended changes to allocate duties so one person is not burdened with all tasks. The board moved to approve the amended job descriptions as presented; the motion was seconded and approved unanimously in the meeting (individual tallies were not recorded in the transcript).
Why it matters: Clarifying and dividing municipal duties can reduce staff overload and align job descriptions with current contracted services.
What’s next: Staff will incorporate the approved changes into job postings and personnel records as needed.
