Templeton Board of Selectmen
Town Hall Conference Room
160 Patriots Road, East Templeton, Massachusetts
Monday, April 25, 2016, 6:30 p.m.
Present: Board of Selectmen: John Columbus, Diane Haley Brooks, Doug Morrison, and
Julie Richard; and Town Administrator, Robert Markel, were in attendance. Kenn
Robinson was not in attendance.
The meeting was called to order at 6:30 p.m.
Insurance Advisory Committee~ Bob explained that the state statute
requires 7 employees and 1 retiree to be on this committee. Ms. Haley Brooks made a motion to rescind the Board of Selectmen appointment to this
committee. Mr. Morrison seconded the motion. The vote was 4 yes. This vote
changes the makeup of the committee to be in compliance with
Massachusetts General Laws, which supercede any Town Bylaws or Board of
Selectmen votes/decisions.
So, how did selectmen business become Advisory Committee business? Which kind of makes my point, I was informing the general public of this and at the same time correcting the bogus information that dave smart put out in a comment on a blog. This item was indeed selectmen business because again, it did not go to Town Meeting, it did not go to Advisory Committee nor did it go to the Planning Board.
