The role of the Board of Selectmen is primarily to oversee the many departments, personnel and finances of the Town. The Selectmen are confident in the Department Heads who are in each of their various positions. Although the Board is always willing to hear concerns, it’s also very important that the Board allows their Department Heads to do their specific job, first, as they are trained and certified in that area.
