Raymond ZBA recommends resident Jess McConkie to Select Board for membership; officers re‑elected
Summary
The Zoning Board interviewed Jess McConkie, a longtime Raymond resident, and voted to recommend them to the Select Board for appointment. The board also re‑elected David Murch as chair and Greg Dean as vice chair by unanimous consent.
At the start of the July 28 meeting the board interviewed Jess McConkie for membership on the Zoning Board of Appeals. McConkie introduced themself as a longtime Raymond resident and said they wanted to contribute time and effort to the board. "I've been a Raymond resident for a long time," McConkie said, and asked about what the board looked for in a member.
After a brief exchange about home‑occupation workload and time commitment the board moved and seconded a recommendation to the Select Board. The motion to send the recommendation passed; the Select Board will take a separate appointment vote. The ZBA then conducted its officer elections: David Murch was nominated and accepted the chair role and Greg Dean was nominated and accepted as vice chair; members indicated unanimous support for the slate.
Procedural note: recommendation to the Select Board is an advisory step; final appointment occurs when the Select Board votes. McConkie will receive required onboarding and training if appointed.
