Steering committee outlines immediate steps: advertise, appoint, convene and prepare levy materials
Summary
Committee agreed on near-term actions: advertise appointments (30 days), close applications Aug. 23, present appointments at county council Aug. 25, convene the board that week, and prepare levy materials for September–October decisions ahead of a Jan. 1 target.
Committee leaders outlined a sequence of next steps to keep the transition on schedule: advertise fire-board openings for 30 days, close applications on Aug. 23, have the county council consider appointments on Aug. 25, convene the fire board the same week, and have the fire board prepare levy recommendations for county-council consideration in September and October. Justin (staff coordinator) was asked to circulate county-council dates and provide reminders to the group.
The committee emphasized outreach to county-council members so they understand that the towns are ready to take control and to show unity at the county-council hearings. Executive Danes asked the committee to prepare materials and to hold a combined North–South meeting to walk through financial details and the proposed operational model before final council action.
