• Description of Services: Selectboard members serve a term of three years, with one or two elected each year. As chief administrative officers of the town, the Selectboard is responsible throughout the year for implementing the decisions of Town Meetings. They are the town’s legal agent; the commissioners of highways and sewers, and of police; the Board of Public Welfare; and the License Board, holding hearings on license applications for the sale of alcoholic beverages, storage of gasoline, etc. They draw up the Warrant for every Town Meeting. They appoint most of the nonelected officials and boards; e.g. Board of Appeals, Conservation commission, Industrial Development Commission, but not the Committee on Appropriations. Their chairman shares in appointing special committees.
