An Act creating the offices of select board and town manager in the town of Sandisfield

This bill authorizes the town of Sandisfield to establish a new government structure consisting of a three-member select board and a single town manager. Under this plan, the select board would serve as the town's chief policy-making body, responsible for setting broad guidelines and approving key appointments, while the town manager would act as the chief administrative officer handling day-to-day operations. The legislation grants the select board specific powers to hire the town manager, manage personnel policies, issue business licenses, and oversee audits, ensuring that elected officials focus on policy while hired professionals manage administration. This change allows the town to operate under a manager-council model similar to many larger municipalities, separating political decision-making from administrative execution.
