Selectboard approves $130,000 Windham County sheriff contract for 2026–27
Summary
The Putney Selectboard authorized a one-year contract with the Windham County Sheriff’s Office for $130,000 covering July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027, and authorized the Town Manager to sign the agreement.
The Putney Selectboard reviewed and approved a contract renewal with the Windham County Sheriff’s Office for the fiscal year July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027 in the amount of $130,000. The Town Manager described the contract and noted the timing should not conflict with a separate regional policing initiative being organized by the sheriff’s office.
"The contract is for $130,000," the Town Manager reported during the agenda discussion. The board voted to execute the contract and authorized the Town Manager to sign on the town’s behalf. Board members indicated that, once the governing council for the sheriff’s regional policing initiative is established, a Selectboard member will be designated to participate in establishing its budget, which could inform future contract terms.
No conditions or vote tallies beyond the motion's passage were recorded in the minutes.
