Stoddard selectmen appoint Amy Peacock as ballot clerk and order appointment-tracking spreadsheet
Summary
Selectmen agreed to create a spreadsheet to track appointed positions and unanimously appointed Amy Peacock as ballot clerk for a three-year term to improve transparency around municipal appointments.
Stoddard selectmen on March 23 agreed to create a central spreadsheet tracking appointed town positions, occupants and term expirations to make appointment records easier to update on town webpages. The change followed discussion of confusion in the ballot-clerk appointment process.
Selectman Terri LaRoche moved to appoint Amy Peacock as ballot clerk for a three-year term; Selectman Jason Kovarik seconded and the motion passed unanimously. Town Clerk Nancy McNeal and Town Administrator Michelle Pong were present for the action.
The new tracking spreadsheet is intended to list each appointed position, the current occupant and the appointment or expiration date so town staff can synchronize website pages and public records. The board did not specify a completion date for the spreadsheet, but directed staff to begin compiling the information.
The meeting record lists attendees and roles; the board approved several other routine motions before adjourning.
