An Act providing for a town administrator in the town of Hopedale

This bill establishes a Town Administrator position for the Town of Hopedale, appointed by the Select Board. The Administrator serves as the town's chief administrative officer, responsible for managing daily operations, preparing the annual budget, implementing Select Board policies, overseeing personnel and contracts, and reviewing town bylaws - requiring full-time commitment without other public roles. The Select Board may remove the Administrator for cause with due process, and temporary appointments (up to three months, renewable once) may be made during vacancies. The bill directly affects Hopedale's local governance structure by creating this executive role to streamline municipal administration.
