ARTICLE 14: COUNCIL ON AGING To see if the Town will vote to adopt the following bylaw, pursuant to G.L. c. 40, § 8B, relative to the Templeton Council on Aging established at the May 8, 1976 Annual Town Meeting, said bylaw to be inserted as Chapter 9, Article VI, and to read as follows:

Templeton town website - council on aging, shows 

Vacant	Chairperson
Mary Ehnstrom	Vice Chairperson
Irene Murray	Member
James Doody	Member
Thomas Ehnstrom	Member
Victor Toscano	Member

So, how do we have a bylaw that states there are to be 5 members but website shows 6 positions? Templeton has a town website voted for by town meeting to post town information and town business on it, we also have a budget item for tax dollars to maintain it and update it as well as in past employee raises based on responsibility for the town website. Since the board of selectmen are responsible for budget, policy andoverall management of town affairs and town administrator is responsible for day to day operations, why after the 2021 town meeting vote has the town website not been updated? Less patting on the back and less cheerleading and more getting the job done. Fix the damn website and this is not the only incorrect item on said website. This pattern of not following town bylaws and not following policy and not keeping the website upto date is completely unacceptable. Do the job (s) you are paid to do!
