Board of Selectmen · Meeting of June 29, 2026

Spencer Board of Selectmen unanimously approves first-due fire software and declines property purchase. The Board voted 5-0 to contract with First Due to replace the Fire Department's aging ESO/Firehouse platform, aligning it with regional dispatch systems, and unanimously rejected the town's right of first refusal on a 60,000-square-foot residential lot at 30 Howe Road, noting it lacked municipal significance. Five additional unanimous votes approved employment agreements with Fire Chief Robert Parsons and Police Lieutenant Patrick Waugh, ambulance vacation allocation contracts, a LIRO design contract for Sugden Public Library Phase II renovation work, and a Whip City Fiber deployment estimate totaling $27,879 for a potential town-wide broadband network funded at Town Meeting.
