BAILEY August 14, 1991 (SOB) 771-464 <br /> FAX <br /> LESUE-ANN MORSE (508)790—1 33 <br /> Kevin J. Harrington <br /> Executive Secretary <br /> Town of Mashpee <br /> P. 0. Box 1108 <br /> Mashpee, MA 02649 <br /> RE: Special Municipal Employee <br /> Dear Kevin. <br /> I am advised by Jane that the official 19914&zwaLq count for Mashpee indicates <br /> the existence of 10,044 inhabitants in the Town. This has significance in <br /> view of the provisions of Chapter 268A, Section l(n) relating to the definition <br /> of a Special Municipal Employee insofar as the same is applicable to selectmen. <br /> Section I(n) provides that "A selectman in a town with a population of 10,,000 <br /> or fewer or persons shall be a special municipal employee without being <br /> expressly so classified." <br /> Due to the fact that the population of Mashpee exceeds 10,000, the Board <br /> of Selectmen are no longer classified as "Special Municipal Employees", <br /> within the meaning of Section I(n) which became operative in October of <br /> 1990. <br /> 1 believe it would be very prudent for you to bring to the attention of the <br /> Board of Selectmen the fact that they are no longer special municipal employees <br /> and are now classified as "Municipal Employees",.-Tla-&4pificance of this, <br /> change is substantial and the members of the-Blo-ard should)be made aware <br /> of the same. <br /> Yo 4 very y, <br /> YOS&P, <br /> ,Towndd'unsel <br /> />j t%p <br /> JJR:ss <br /> cc: Jane Labute, Town Clerk <br />
