Summary
The board approved a memorandum of understanding with AFSCME Council 93 covering pay for Carla Aquila's duties as the pay‑as‑you‑throw administrator, and the union requested the stipend be paid retroactively to February when she was appointed.
The Townsend Board of Health approved a memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the town and AFSCME Council 93 covering the appointment and stipend for the pay‑as‑you‑throw administrator, Carla Aquila. Lindsey Gasly, representing AFSCME Council 93, said she would submit suggested edits to clarify that assignment of additional duties should be exercised "with the approval of the board of health" and requested that any stipend be paid retroactively to the February appointment.
Board members expressed support for retroactive payment; the board moved to approve the MOU with the discussed additions and approved the motion on roll call. Staff was directed to forward the revised draft to the town administrator and the select board for final signature.
