Select Board Chair Michael Currie and Town Administrator Adam Lamontagne presented the Fiscal Year 2023 Merit Awards to three employees at the November 15th Fall Town Meeting. The honorees were chosen from those nominated by the general public and fellow employees as those who have gone above and beyond in the areas, Communications, Efficiency, or Pinnacle of Excellence.

The Communications Award, for those showing a commitment to assisting the public and transparency in government & include improving and/or devising new ways to communicate information within the organization and to the public at large, was presented to Ms. Dottie Bresnahan.

The Efficiency Award, for those displaying a commitment to ensuring we operate proficiently and efficiently by “stepping up” and stepping in and/or suggesting ideas that result in ease of processing, and savings of time was presented to Ms. Karen Johnson, a 10-year town employee for her creative, out-of-the- box thinking and can-do attitude in the Library.

The Pinnacle of Excellence Award for those who display a willingness to make extraordinary efforts in the ongoing improvement of the organization, assisting other staff members or departments to complete new or ongoing assignments and often requires the person to “stretch” to learn new computer programs, methodologies or processes, was presented to Ms. Jessica Case, who works in the Development Services Department for her hard work and positive attitude.
