Chesterfield selectmen hold meeting with department leaders on leadership transition

The Chesterfield Board of Selectmen convened at 3:00 PM on July 15, 2026, at the Town Offices (and via Zoom) to discuss a leadership transition and to solicit feedback from departments. Fran Shippee called the meeting to order and led a session that included named participants from departments and town operations.

According to the minutes, the board met with Wayne Dingman, David Weaver, Chad Sharkey and Micheal Weldon to review the transition and hear department concerns and suggestions. The record does not specify particular proposals, timelines, or decisions resulting from that discussion; it records the presence of those participants and the topic focus as "leadership transition and department feedback." The transcript does not provide verbatim remarks; attendees are identified in the minutes list of participants.

The meeting lasted until 4:45 PM, when Selectboard Chair Fran Shippee moved to adjourn and the motion, seconded by Selectboard member Brad Roscoe, passed unanimously by roll call. The board scheduled its next regular meeting for July 22, 2026, at 6:00 PM at the Town Offices and via Zoom.
