Selectmen appoint Police Captain Adam Shaw as interim assistant town manager
Summary
Effective June 16, the Wells Board of Selectmen appointed Police Captain Adam Shaw as temporary interim acting assistant town manager to support town manager Michael Pardue while the police chief recruitment proceeds; the motion passed 5-0 and Shaw will remain a police captain during the assignment.
The Wells Board of Selectmen voted unanimously June 16 to appoint Police Captain Adam Shaw as the town's temporary interim acting assistant town manager to provide managerial support while the town recruits a new police chief.
The appointment took effect June 16 and the selectmen recorded the vote 5-0. The board's order states the assignment will continue until a new police chief is hired or the board rescinds the assignment. The order specifies that Captain Shaw will continue serving in his capacity as a captain with the Wells Police Department while performing the temporary assignment.
Board members said the move is intended to give town manager Michael Pardue bandwidth to manage additional police-department duties as the chief recruitment proceeds, which the board estimated could take several months. The board did not set a new salary or contract terms during the meeting; implementation details will be handled administratively.
