Select Board accepts longtime recreation commissioner's resignation, approves job descriptions and routine municipal business
Summary
Hollis's Select Board accepted the resignation of Recreation Commission member Robin Dunn, approved two revised job descriptions (planning assistant and recreation director), and handled routine items including a forestry agreement extension, assessing actions and warrants.
The Hollis Select Board accepted the resignation of Robin Dunn from the Recreation Commission and approved a package of personnel and routine municipal items at its April 27 meeting.
Select Board member (S4) moved to accept Dunn's resignation, noting 16 years of service; the motion passed by voice vote, 4-0, and the board publicly thanked Dunn for long volunteer service. The board then reviewed two revised job descriptions: retitling Planning Secretary to Assistant to the Town Planner and approving a substantially revised recreation director/rec coordinator description. Staff (Chrissy, S3) said the planning position was not new (last filled 2015'2018) and that funds were already in the budget, and the person now working in the recreation role confirmed the revised duties matched current responsibilities. Both job-description motions passed 4-0.
The board approved an extension of an existing agreement with Procter Hill Forestry and Logging LLC after the logger requested more time to complete previously authorized work. The meeting also included a batch of assessing actions (charitable/religious exemptions, abatements, current-use enrollments and land-use change tax releases) and approval of warrants for payroll and accounts payable. The board approved public and non-public minutes from April 13, 2026.
Chrissy (S3) provided an update on Right-to-Know-request-related expenses: the most recent request handled by the Hollis Police Department incurred $284 in costs, mostly legal. Committee and departmental updates included Recreation Commission work on dust control at a horse-riding ring and cemetery trustees' work with DAR on veteran flag holders and possible grant opportunities.
Next steps: staff will post the Planning Assistant position for recruitment, committee leads will continue routine work and the board moved to non-public session on personnel matters at the end of the meeting.
