October 12, 2004
PRESENT Richard Pagett, Hank Manz, Tony Close, Dan Fenn,Deborah Brown, Evelyn
Silber and Lori Manning, Clerk.
Upon motion duly made and seconded the committee voted by roll call Mr. Close, Mr.
Kennedy Mr. Manz, Mr. Fenn, Ms. Silber, Ms. Brown, Mr. Burnell and Mr. Pagett to go
into executive session to interview a candidate
The interview followed the same process as the two prior interviews.
Members of the committee had contacted several present and former Selectmen from the
town where the first candidate worked as Town Manager. They discussed the various
reports they were given. Next the committee discussed how to best present this candidate
to the Board of Selectmen and the public. They felt it was important for it to be known
that they had gone beyond the responsibilities of the committee to check references and
become comfortable with this candidate. He was the strongest candidate, but the
committee worried that the public's interest in his past could hinder his abilities to get the
job done.
The committee discussed the other two candidates. They decided that they would
forward all three candidates to the Board of Selectmen. The Board could decide which
candidates they want to interview
It was decided that Mr. Manz would make a brief presentation at the next Selectmen s
meeting informing them of the candidates the committee recommends.
Upon motion duly made and seconded, the committee voted to adjourn.
