Summary

Board discussed two applicants for the assessor-clerk position, considered going into executive session to review candidates, and asked current clerk Sally to remain for a few weeks while the board gathers more information.

The Select Board reviewed the status of applicants for the assessor-clerk position and decided not to vote on hiring at this meeting. Speaker 1 (Nancy Grishica) read that Sally's last day is Friday and asked whether Sally could continue for a few weeks while the town completes candidate checks; the board agreed to ask her to stay on until the next meeting. Members also discussed whether to enter executive session to examine candidate qualifications for privacy reasons but ultimately tabled a final hiring decision pending additional inquiry.

Board members noted two applicants were on file, and speaker 2 recommended more time to check references before taking a vote. "I think we should table this until we have more inquiry," Mike Dahl said; the board accepted the recommendation and instructed staff to follow up with candidates and report back.
