Moore answered questions about availability, the twice‑monthly meeting schedule and potential conflicts; members recommended training and consultation with town staff on technical matters when needed.
A second applicant who recently moved to Bellingham described a background in property management and commercial real estate, noted involvement with tourism and community development in Providence and emphasized familiarity with RFPs and zoning issues. Board members asked about time commitment, prior planning experience and how the applicants would handle votes involving acquaintances in a small town.
After questions from members, the boards confirmed they will vote on the appointment at the July 20 meeting.
Ending: The interview process continues; the boards will deliberate and vote July 20.
