Resident expresses interest in filling select-board vacancy; process and timing discussed
Summary
Robert McMann spoke during public comment to express interest in an upcoming select-board vacancy; board members said the standard practice is to document interest in the minutes, accept letters or emails, and discuss interviews during a future meeting or executive session.
During the public-comment period, a resident told the board he would like to be considered for an open select-board seat and offered to explain his qualifications. Board members said they have previously handled interim appointments via letters of interest and noted that appointments often fill the seat until the next regular election.
The board said that in-person statements will be recorded in the minutes if delivered at a meeting. "To the best of my knowledge, we have one other person that has sent via email of interest," a board member said, and the board reported that they would discuss interviews and possible executive-session vetting later in the meeting. No formal appointment was made during the session.
