Summary

During public comment Kelli Kilanski promoted veterans resources and local Rolling Thunder events; Denis Murphy, a state representative and town moderator, announced that his House Bill 1113 passed the House and will appear on the March 2027 warrant to allow three-year terms for town moderators.

In the public-comment portion of the meeting resident Kelli Kilanski told the Selectboard about local veterans resources and events: missing-man tables will be installed at Hinsdale A-1, Margaritas, Longhorn and the Keene Elks Club; Rolling Thunder will fundraise at upcoming local festivals; and a veterans group meets each Tuesday at the Brattleboro Legion.

Denis Murphy, who serves as Town Moderator and as a state representative, told the board that House Bill 1113 he sponsored passed the New Hampshire House. The bill would enable municipalities to establish three-year terms for town moderators; Murphy said it will be on the next town warrant (March 2027) for voter consideration.

Why this matters: veterans-oriented activities and local advocacy groups were publicized for veterans in the region, and the passage of HB1113 in the House sets up a local warrant question that could change how the town elects its moderator.
