Readfield — The Readfield Select Board on March 23 unanimously appointed Patricia Walsh to the town’s conservation commission.
The board considered an appointment and invited Walsh to introduce herself. Walsh told the board she has lived in the community about 15 years, holds a master’s degree in environmental law and a master’s in creative writing, and has worked on land‑conservation matters (she cited experience with Vermont’s Act 250 land‑use statute). She said she attended a recent conservation commission meeting and wanted to volunteer to give back to the community.
A board member moved to appoint Walsh to the conservation commission effective that night; the motion was seconded and the vote carried unanimously. The chair thanked Walsh for volunteering and noted she did not need to stay for the remainder of the meeting.
The appointment was presented as a straightforward volunteer appointment; no conditions or objections were recorded.
