Selectmen continue town manager search process

GREENVILLE — The board of selectmen reviewed submitted applications for the position of town manager during a special meeting on July 11.

After about an hour the board agreed by consensus to take no action on the items, other than to have Town Manager John Simko prepare letters for Chair Richard Peat to sign indicating the selectmen have received the materials and that review of the documents is ongoing.

The selectmen were scheduled to have another special meeting on July 18 to again review applications for town manager in executive session.

Each of the five board members will work with Simko to be briefed on five projects in order to be better prepared for the town manager transition. These projects are the ATV and snowmobile trail, downtown revitalization, the airport, Greenville Steam Plant revitalization and solid waste disposal.

Simko is departing at the end of the summer to become a municipal loan officer and vice president with Androscoggin Bank.
