Selectmen approve revised transfer-station job description requiring equipment operation ability
Summary
The board adopted an amended transfer-station job description adding requirements for willingness to learn wheel-loader and truck operation and to assist with dumpster swapping/compacting; the motion passed unanimously.
The Selectmen reviewed two tracked-change versions of a proposed job-description rewrite for the transfer station. After discussion, a selectman proposed adding language requiring candidates to have (or be willing to learn) the ability to operate a wheel loader and related equipment and to assist in swapping and compacting dumpsters. A motion to adopt the amended job description passed following a second and an affirmative vote.
Board members clarified that the addition acknowledges occasional work in unsanitary conditions ("you're going to be in the trash if needed") and is intended to formalize expectations for the role. Staff will update the posted job description and proceed with whatever recruitment steps are appropriate under town personnel policy.
