Select Board amends social media policy to include contractors
Summary
The Select Board unanimously amended the town's social media policy to require contractors as well as employees to adhere to the policy, following a staff recommendation prompted by a recent incident.
Town Manager Garrett Corbin asked the Select Board April 27 to amend the town's social media policy to require contractors to follow the same rules as employees after a recent incident prompted concern that actions taken in the town's name could embarrass the municipality.
Karen Campbell moved to amend the town's social media policy to include contractors. Annie Tuell seconded the motion and it passed unanimously.
The change expands the policy's coverage to contractors working for the town; the minutes record no additional procedural steps or implementation timetable. The town manager raised the item to ensure contractors do not post or act in ways that would bring harm or embarrassment to the town.
