§ 18. Advisory commissions.


Latest version.
  • (a)

    The board of selectmen may appoint such advisory commissions as it deems necessary to study and advise on any matters in order to assist the board in carrying out its responsibilities. Such commissions will be established by resolution of the board of selectmen which will stipulate their specific missions, reporting calendars, and size (an odd number of commissioners).

    (b)

    These commissions will include the word "advisory" in their names.

    (c)

    The mission of these commissions shall be advisory in nature and will not entail any functional or operational responsibilities for the town.

    (d)

    Once every twelve (12) months each advisory commission will report to the board of selectmen on its activities in furtherance of its mission. Based on its continuing need the board of selectmen may vote to extend the mission of the commission for another twelve (12) months.
