Personnel Board

The Personnel Board is made up of five individuals appointed by the Board of Selectmen to a three-year term of office. The Board recommends and administers the Personnel Bylaw. The specific responsibilities of the Personnel Board are as follows:

• Development and periodic review of the Personnel Administration Plan, including the Classification and Compensation Schedule for recommendation to the Selectmen and when appropriate town meeting.
• Development and periodic review of the Classification and Compensation Schedule of positions of town personnel for approval by the Selectmen and when appropriate by town meeting.
• Serving as review board to consider employee appeals in all personnel matters with the authority to settle such appeals.

Members are assigned projects based on a priority schedule set by the Board of Selectmen. There are no specific qualifications for membership on this Board; personnel expertise would be helpful but is not necessary.
