Selectmen appoint interim officers to steward historic meetinghouse

The New Durham Selectmen voted to form a stewardship committee for the historic meeting house and appointed interim officers to start outreach and planning.

Chair (Speaker 1) moved to appoint Greg Anthony as interim chairman and Janice Anthony as interim secretary until a full committee is established; the motion was seconded and the board approved the interim appointments by roll-call vote (3–0). Board members said the committee will develop a continued-maintenance plan, recruit qualified volunteers, and post qualifications on the town website.

Members described the effort as a multi-year stewardship responsibility and agreed to begin outreach and compile a list of desired qualifications for the committee. The board emphasized that once the full committee is seated it will select permanent officers.
