Select Board defers personnel policy and debates vehicle‑use limits

The board elected to delay final approval of updated personnel policies, including a section on vacation‑leave payout and resignation notice, until member Kevin could attend. The chair said, "I really am not I I don't wanna approve this this evening without Kevin," and the board agreed to hold the item for the next meeting.

Members also debated the town equipment and vehicle‑use policy. One concern was limiting highway manager vehicle access seasonally (Nov–Apr), which the chair opposed because managers may need vehicles during storms or flood responses. Board members discussed an alternative to per‑vehicle line items: a blanket statement outlining authorized home‑to‑work use and emergency availability for managers. The board asked staff to refine the language and return with Kevin present before formal adoption.
