Town CouncilThe Town Council is responsible for making all of the legislative decisions that affect the Town. They are elected each May, and serve for two year terms, with two seats being filled one year, and three the next. The Council serves in an unpaid capacity. Each Councilmember donates many hours per year helping to ensure that the Town runs as smoothly and efficiently as possible. They meet once a month, in public, to discuss Town business and policy. Agendas and minutes from those meetings are available online and in the Town Office. In addition to these public meetings, each Councilmember serves as a liaison to at least one Town Committee and has many other public service interests.
