Dear fellow Hanoverians:
The Town Manager Study Committee will sponsor the first in a series of public forums to gather input from the community regarding the establishment of a Town Manager/Board of Selectmen form of government on Wednesday, December 10, at 7:00 p.m., in the main hearing room at Town Hall.
At its meeting of July 21, 2008, the Board of Selectmen voted to create a committee of five citizens to study a Town Manger/Board of Selectmen form of government. The committee includes two members appointed by the Board of Selectmen, two members appointed by the Town Moderator, and one member appointed by the Board of Public Works. The committee is charged with producing a document in charter form to present to Town Meeting and eventually to the State Legislature which lays out a Board of Selectmen/Town Manager form of government for the Town of Hanover. The Board of Selectmen would serve as a policy setting board and the Town Manager would implement those policies and manage the everyday activities of Town government.
The purpose of this forum is to offer residents the opportunity to learn about the process, ask questions, share concerns, and offer their opinions about what impact this proposed form of government would have on the community. For further information, please contact Linda DiNardo, Chairperson, at 781-826-8019 or lldinardo@comcast.net.
