Resident raises allegations of workplace misconduct; board says audit process forthcoming
Summary
A resident alleged past harassment and accused town leadership of failing to investigate complaints and withholding a police report; the Chair said an audit is ongoing and will be public when available.
During the public‑comment period Nicholas Seldon alleged personnel misconduct by a town official he identified as "Mr. Duffy," said three women resigned in mid‑2024, and that a trustee was implicated in an incident documented in Woodstock police report 24WK003240. He urged the board to investigate. The Chair responded that a town audit is forthcoming and public when available; no formal investigation or alternative resolution was recorded in the meeting.
Seldon said he had sought an unredacted police report and characterized town response as a pattern of "sweeping misdeeds under the rug." The Chair did not dispute the allegations in public comment but replied that the audit process will be available for public review when the draft and final reports are complete. No motion or formal action to open an independent personnel investigation appears in the transcript.
