NEWFANE — As the Selectboard convened for the first time since Town Meeting, board members welcomed Gary Deluis to his three-year term on March 7. Incumbents Marion Dowling and Todd Lawley both won one-year terms, Carol Hatcher is into the second of her three-year term, and Michael Fitzpatrick finishes his three-year post this year.
Dennis Wiswall - who replaced Rosalind Fritz midway through last year - declined to seek election.
At the March 7 meeting, the board elected the chair (Lawley), vice-chair (Hatcher), and clerk (Meckle). Some committee and commission appointments will occur at later meetings as town officials confirm nominees are interested in serving.
Board members could not decide whether to designate the Brattleboro Reformer or The Commons as its newspaper of record, so it chose both.
The board voted to maintain the same regular meeting schedule as last year: 6 p.m. on the first and third Monday of the month in the town offices.
