An Act authorizing the town of Avon to appoint a town clerk
HD 1100 changes how Avon's town clerk is selected. It abolishes the elected town clerk position after the current holder's term ends (or immediately if they leave early), replacing it with an appointed role. The town clerk will now be appointed by Avon's Select Board for three-year terms, as amended in the Town Charter. This bill directly affects Avon's local government structure and the Select Board's hiring authority for the clerk position.
