9 <br /> Board of Selectmen <br /> Minutes <br /> May 21, 2001 <br /> NEW BUSINESS: <br /> Appointment of Moderator: <br /> The Board reviewed correspondence as received from Town Counsel <br /> dated May 16, 2001 relative to the absence of the office of Town <br /> Moderator on the Annual Election Ballot. <br /> The Town's options with regard to corrective measures for the position of <br /> Moderator require the finding that a vacancy exists in the office of Town <br /> Moderator as a result of a"failure to elect" a Moderator at the Annual <br /> Town Election. When the office failed to appear on the ballot, the result is <br /> also a"failure to elect." It was noted that the incumbent Moderator's race <br /> was uncontested. <br /> Motion made by Selectman Marsters to declare that a vacancy exists <br /> in the office of the Town Moderator as a result of a "failure to elect" a <br /> Moderator at the May 2001 Annual Town Election, and to appoint <br /> Jeremy Carter as Town Moderator until the May 2002 Annual Town <br /> Election. <br /> Motion seconded by Selectman Taylor. <br /> VOTE: Unanimous. 5-0. <br /> Motion made by Selectman Leveille to remit correspondence to the <br /> Governor's Office requesting that a(3)year term be considered for <br /> the position of Town Moderator. <br /> Motion seconded by Selectman Marsters. <br /> VOTE: Unanimous. 5-0. <br /> NEW BUSINESS: <br /> Appointment of Constable: <br /> As per the recommendation of the Town Clerk and Chief of Police, the <br /> Board motioned to appoint a Constable in accordance with the Board of <br /> Selectmen's Policy No. 30. <br /> Motion made by Selectman Leveille to appoint Benjamin M.
