Someone is apparently a fortune teller in the office of the Board of Selectmen. They have put on the Town website that there are three openings on the Advisory Board, which is a 7 member board with 6 sitting members. It is the responsibility of the Town Moderator to appoint people at the conclusion of the Town Meeting. How do people in the selectmen's office know what the moderator will do? How does anyone in the selectmen's office know that current members wish to continue serving? Since there is only one individual running for moderator, does this mean there is a deal in place or a deal in the works? I am not really into conspiracy theories but it seems a bit strange for that posting. Perhaps the selectmen do not like some current members who ask to many questions. I think I will ask the selectmen at their next meeting and see what the response is.
