Board of Selectmen

Mission

The Board of Selectmen understands that the decisions we make today will have a lasting impact on tomorrow. Therefore, each decision that impacts the community must be carefully considered. The Selectmen, town staff, and various commissions, boards and committees are working diligently to enhance the quality of life to our residents and future generations.

The Board of Selectmen review policy issues before the town, develop the town budget, and rule on proper use of the town’s resources. The Board also approves bids, labor agreements, bonding authorizations, legal claims, appointments to Boards and Commissions. Legislative questions are also brought before the Board of Selectmen before going to a Town Meeting.
