Select Board appoints Vic Parrish, approves bookkeeping contract caps and payment orders
Summary
The board appointed Vic Parrish to the cemetery commission, authorized up to $2,000 in the current fiscal year and $2,500 next year for a bookkeeping contractor to clean up town accounts, and approved payment orders and financial statements.
The board took several administrative actions May 12. Members voted to appoint Vic Parrish to fill the remainder of Scott Sergeant's term on the cemetery commission through the 2026 town meeting.
The board also approved engaging bookkeeping consultant Sharon Stearns and authorized a fiscal‑year cap: up to $2,000 in the current fiscal year and up to $2,500 in the next fiscal year to begin clean‑up and training for the town bookkeeper Nancy. The chair said the caps would limit total spending and that additional funding would require further board consideration.
Later in the meeting the board reviewed payment orders, discussed invoicing practices for some contractors (noting a preference for monthly invoices for transparency) and approved payment orders and the financial statements by voice vote.
