Summary

After executive session the Town Board unanimously approved hiring Shannon Tryon as Water Clerk and granted her a residency waiver, with motions made by Councilman Atkinson and seconded by Supervisor North.

Following an executive session to discuss a personnel matter, the Town Board voted to hire Shannon Tryon for the position of Water Clerk and granted a residency waiver so she may serve despite living in the Town of Sandy Creek. The vote was made public after the executive session when Town Clerk Millie Newcomb read a letter from absent Councilwoman Sue Haynes; Councilman Atkinson moved to hire, Supervisor North seconded, and the motion passed by roll call with all voting "AYE."

Minutes reflect that the hire followed a letter from an absent board member and that the board explicitly granted a residency waiver as part of the motion. The board did not discuss salary or start date on the public record at the workshop; those details are not specified in the transcript and will appear in formal personnel records.
