Selectboard Meeting Notes – Stop Asking Us About The EMS Decision
The Brattleboro Selectboard doesn’t want to review what led to an abrupt change in EMS services in town last spring.

The next animal control officer will serve 40 hours a week, a fancy new B&B got a liquor license, the Town will work on plans for permanent downtown public restrooms, and the board expressed gratitude for the monthly EMS update and all the fine work being done.
