the provisions of G.L. Chapter 44B upon recommendation of the Community Preservation
<br /> Committee.
<br /> Motion passes unanimously at 7:27 PM.
<br /> Article 13
<br /> To see if the Town will vote to Revise Section 3-1 (c) of the Charter, by deleting the current
<br /> language of Section 3-1 (c) and substituting the following language therefore;
<br /> (c) Eligibility — Any voter of the Town shall be eligible to hold any elective Town office,
<br /> provided however, that except as may be authorized by this Charter, no elected Town official, as
<br /> defined in Section 3-1(a),, shall hold any other elected Town office or full time Town
<br /> employment during the term for which he or she was elected.
<br /> Submitted by the Board of Selectmen
<br /> Explanation,,* The purpose of this article is to remove the current limitation on elected officials
<br /> (Board of Selectmen, School Committee, Town Clerk, Board of Library Trustees, Town
<br /> Moderator or Planning Board) from being appointed by the Board of Selectmen as a full voting
<br /> member of a multiple member board. This would allow elected officials to be considered for
<br /> service on other volunteer boards and committees. The Town has historically had a shortage of
<br /> volunteer applicants for some boards and committees. The employment limitation would limit a
<br /> source of potential conflict of interest between the duties of elected officials and the Town.
<br /> The Board of Selectmen recommends approval by a vote of 5-0.
<br /> The Finance Committee does not recommend approval by a vote of 6-0.
<br /> Motion made by Selectman Don Myers.
<br /> Mot ow I move Article 13 be voted as printed in the warrant, with the exception of the phrase,
<br /> "(.or take any other action relating thereto".
