The Westbrook Board of Selectmen voted to create an Ad Hoc Emergency Services Committee on Aug. 27 to serve as an interim governance body while a permanent EMS Commission and ordinance are developed. Selectman Joe Campbell moved to form the committee; Selectman Chet Bialicki seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
According to the board discussion, the committee will report to and remain under the purview of the Board of Selectmen, with responsibilities similar to the Fire Commission for fiscal oversight and approval of the EMS director but without involvement in daily operational or personnel matters. The Board then voted to appoint William Brownstein, David Olmsted, Leonard Goldberg, Nancy Palermo-Lee and Joseph Campbell, with Vivian Partridge named as an alternate.
