Select Board asks town manager to vet proposed auditing firm before letter of intent
Summary
After a presentation by the superintendent and town manager, the board voted 5-0 to have the Town Manager research a potential new auditing firm (minutes variably reference Brewer & Brewer, RHR Smith, and RJ Smith) and to review contract requirements before any letter of intent is signed.
School Superintendent (listed in minutes as Shawn Colson/Carlson) and Town Manager Samantha Mank presented to the board on auditing options and potential vendors. The minutes contain inconsistent vendor naming—headings reference Brewer & Brewer and RHR Smith while presentation text refers to RJ Smith—so the board voted unanimously, 5-0, to have the Town Manager investigate the firm and its contract requirements with the intent of possibly signing a letter of intent.
The board's motion directs the Town Manager to return with verification of the firm's identity, references, and contract terms before any engagement. The minutes do not record firm selection or contract details; the town will need to confirm the vendor name and provide clear procurement documentation.
