Select Board renews tobacco-control memorandum of understanding for another year
Summary
The board approved a one‑year memorandum of understanding with an external organization to oversee tobacco-control duties for the Board of Health, describing the item as noncontroversial and meeting local obligations.
The Select Board reviewed and approved a memorandum of understanding to continue a partnership for tobacco control oversight on behalf of the town’s Board of Health.
Why it matters: The MOU delegates oversight responsibilities to an outside organization for another year, allowing the town to meet its public-health obligations without directly providing the service in-house.
Board action: The chair noted the MOU had been signed the prior year and presented the renewal as noncontroversial; the board voted in favor of renewing the agreement by voice vote. No substantive objections were raised in the meeting record.
Next steps: The town will continue the contractual relationship with the named organization for the coming year and will take whatever administrative steps are necessary to document and implement the MOU.
