Selectmen name SALT backup and confirm Budget Committee quorum ahead of Town Meeting

The Selectmen voted to name M. Sargent as the backup for SALT meetings; the minutes record the action as approved 3-0.
Town Manager Sara J. Liscomb confirmed with legal counsel that the Budget Committee’s quorum is seven members of a 12-member committee. The board discussed whether an ordinance should be changed before committee members are elected at Town Meeting and how that timetable could affect the committee’s planning for the town budget.
