Summary

Board members listed vacancies including two budget committee seats, an emergency management director, three zoning board positions, a family services administrator and a multi-department administrative assistant; the board hopes to decide candidate status within two meeting cycles.

The Select Board recorded several open town positions during departmental reports and set an expedited timeline to address the multi-department administrative assistant vacancy.

The chair read a list of openings: two vacancies on the budget committee, one emergency management director, three seats on the zoning board of adjustment, one family services administrator and one multi-department administrative assistant (S2). County administrator John Merrick (S3) said he had not yet received any qualified applications for the multi-department admin role but will update the board at future meetings.

A board member asked that the hiring decision for the multi-department position be brought back within two meeting cycles if a viable candidate is identified, and the board signaled support for that timeline.

No hiring decisions were made at the meeting; staff will continue recruitment and the board expects an update in the next two meetings.
