Moderator's 2009 Appointments

Town Moderator Chris Mehne made his appointments to the Finance Committee and Personnel Board today.

Appointed to the FinCom were: John Cygielnik, Christopher Rutigliano, and Donna O'Connor (reappointed).

William McGovern was reappointed to the Personnel Board.

Three seats were open on the nine-member FinCom. The terms of Francis Russell, Donna O'Connor, and David L'Ecuyer all ended on June 30, 2009. O'Connor requested reappointment, but Russell and L'Ecuyer did not.

John Cygielnik is a retired accountant and long-time town meeting member who worked as a financial officer in the manufacturing industry for many years. Chris Rutigliano is vice president of a technology company and also a town meeting member; he was a candidate for Selectman in the 2008 town election.

One seat was open on the three-member Personnel Board. Incumbent William T. McGovern's term ended on June 30, 2009, and he was reappointed.

Although the appointments were made this week, their terms actually began July 1, 2009 and will run for three years through June 30, 2012.

Don't Forget! Road Closed

Starting today, Grafton Street (Rt. 140) will be closed between Main Street and Route 9 for about three weeks.

Here's what the Town's website recommends:

Residents will be able to travel north and south from side streets that feed onto Grafton Street but in no case will they be able to cross the culvert located north of Old Brook Road. Residents traveling from west to east are encouraged to use Wesleyan Terrace and Wesleyan Street to access UMass Group Practice, Willy's Steakhouse, and Paquette Farm. Residents traveling east to west are encouraged to use Summer Street and Raymond Avenue to get to these businesses. These businesses will not be closed so please continue to support our local merchants during this difficult time.
So leave early and allow extra time.

Don't forget!!

Lebeaux Stays For Now

Yesterday, Selectman John Lebeaux was formally hired by the Town of Princeton to be their Town Administrator.

Princeton Selectmen and Lebeaux agreed to a three-year contract paying $85k annually.

Lebeaux, like his predecessor in Princeton, will continue being a Selectman for a different town. In fact, he attended a Shrewsbury Board of Selectmen meeting last night. There is no known legal requirement that he step down because conflict of interest laws do not apply.
