Are you interested in being appointed to a Board or Committee to fill a vacancy?

Please note the following:  

• A new member cannot be appointed until the resignation of person leaving is final.
• Vacancies will be posted on the town web site. 
• Interested parties should forward a signed letter stating their interest in being being appointed to the Select Board.
• It is also helpful if the Chair of the Board or Committee writes a letter or comes to the Select Board Meeting in support of the appointment.
• If appointed, the Select Board Executive Assistant will provide the Town Clerk with an appointment form. The appointee should contact the Town Clerk to make an appointment to be sworn in order to begin your duties.
