Members serve a three year term and terms are staggered with one member elected each year. If you would like to make an appointment, please contact the Selectmen's Office at 603-239-4232.
The Select Board is the governing body of the town and Town Meeting is the legislative body. The selectmen are the executive, managerial and administrative body that does what is necessary to carry out the votes enacted at town meeting. Under RSA 41:8, in addition to a host of specific statutory duties, the board of selectmen’s duty is to “manage the prudential affairs of the town.” Authority rests with the board acting as a whole. All actions taken by the selectmen must be voted on by a majority of the board at a public meeting that complies with the Right to Know Law, RSA Chapter 91-A.
The Select Board employs a Town Administrator and Administrative Assistant. You can contact the Selectmen's Office @ (603) 239-4232.
