So, should there be a town bylaw to prevent selectmen from serving on any appointed committees, boards, commissions, etc.?
DOR recommendation in 2009 has been ignored by the Selectman because bing on other boards allows them to ocontrol the ccommittee, Board.
Mike Currie has been the main obsticle in correcting bad town policy for the past 5-6 years and one of the main reasons, In my opinion, that we are facing the financial issuses we face going into fy 2026 Just look to the misguided EDIC issue. Mike Currie ( Chairman of Selectboard) was the main supporter of this illigitamate group. He approved Town employees working under the illagitamate group for many years. Yes thats right, Mike promoted, approved and defended this fake group to town meetings. Mike allowed for this illigitamate group to have access to our Town Counsel and he is still promoting the EDIC as a needeed entity without any statistics to back it up. My belief is that Mike is pushing this for the benfit mostly of one private party who owns the land Mike has decided would be a good industrial park. The same party paid to supply meals under ARPA funding to supply meal to Senior Center, the same party who( Mikes Daughter, grant writer) applied for grant funding to refurbish Barre rd which we have no money to complete.
Selectman on multiple boards leads to corruption of purpose, if not straight corruption!
No Selectman on Ton Boards, Committees or Commissions!

No Selectman should be on another board, committee, nor commission
