An Act providing for the appointment and removal authority of the town administrator of the town of Wilbraham for employees other than those sworn officers of the Wilbraham police department and Wilbraham fire department appointed by the select board, and department heads appointed by the select board, and department heads appointed by boards and commissions so authorized by general law or by-law
Maddy summaryHD 5399 transfers appointment and removal authority for most Wilbraham town employees (excluding department heads and sworn police/fire officers) from the Select Board to the Town Administrator. It specifically covers staff in departments like the board of assessors, town clerk, treasurer, building, planning, IT, and civilian employees in fire/police departments. The bill explicitly excludes department heads, sworn police/fire officers, and the Public Works Director from the Administrator's authority (though the Administrator can hire/remove Public Works staff with the Director's non-binding recommendation). This law supersedes conflicting existing laws, including the 1987 and 2022 Special Acts.
