Summary

Mario Audit applied for Stratford's open health officer post and expressed interest in the town's dog officer role; an earlier dog-officer candidate declined because the hours were irregular. Audit completed paperwork and the board will follow up on liability coverage and a background check.

The Stratford Selectboard reviewed candidates June 2 for two town positions, hearing from Mario Audit about the open health officer role and the continuing, on-call nature of the dog officer job.

Audit told the board he wanted to be considered for the health officer and asked whether the dog officer position was still available. According to the meeting record, Audit completed the health-officer application and a background-check form and said he would review his pistol permit. He also asked what liability protections would apply; town staff said they would contact the town's liability insurance carrier and report back.

Earlier in the meeting the board said it had met with another applicant for the dog officer position, but that person decided the role would not fit his needs because the hours are not steady week to week. The board thanked that applicant. The minutes do not record a formal appointment or hiring decision.

The board said the town will submit any required paperwork to the state after completing background checks and confirming necessary certifications or permits.
