Town approves Kevin Marlon to help with snow plowing as-needed at $20/hour
Summary
At a town meeting, officials approved Kevin Marlon to serve as a superintendent for snow plowing on an as-needed basis, paying $20 per hour and reallocating existing superintendent funds so the move does not increase the overall budget.
At a town meeting, the board voted to accept Kevin Marlon to assist as a superintendent for snow plowing on an as-needed basis, with pay set at $20 per hour.
The Chair introduced Marlon as “a guy that is interested in helping with snow plowing, as needed,” and moved to appoint him; the motion was seconded and the board called for the ayes and approved the appointment. Board members said the hourly rate would be paid from existing superintendent funds and would not add to the town’s overall budget.
Committee members explained the shift is a reallocation of existing labor funds. One member said some deputies are not working as much, so the town will redirect funds to whoever performs the work. “It’s not adding any money to the budget,” a committee member said during the discussion.
The appointment is effective immediately and described as "only as needed." The board did not record a roll-call tally in the transcript beyond calling for the ayes.
The meeting also included related staffing discussion about who will perform winter maintenance and internal reassignments; the Chair said the board is keeping the arrangement within current appropriations so no supplemental appropriation is required.
