Selectmen approve WPCA appointments, authorize $370,080 in payments and hire summer camp counselors
Summary
At its June 18 meeting the Somers Board of Selectmen appointed a new alternate and a full member to the Sunrise WPCA, authorized scheduled town payments of $370,080.44, and approved hiring 21 seasonal camp counselors for summer 2026; motions passed by voice vote.
The Somers Board of Selectmen handled a set of routine agenda items on June 18, approving appointments, payments and seasonal hires.
At the request of the Sunrise Water Pollution Control Authority, the board voted to move an existing WPCA member to an alternate position and appointed Mark Folsom as an alternate. The board then appointed Michelle Michaels as a full member of the WPCA; motions were made, seconded and passed by voice vote.
The board also authorized scheduled payments totaling $370,080.44 after a motion to approve the disbursement was moved and seconded. Later in the meeting the board approved hires for 21 summer camp counselors for the 2026 camp season (June 22–Aug. 14), noting that the program’s tuition is intended to cover those payroll costs and that the program traditionally operates at or near break-even.
These items were approved as part of the evening’s consent and new business sections; no additional public debate or amendments were recorded for these specific motions.
