§ 209. Jurisdiction over other officers or employees
Neither the Selectboard nor any of its members shall direct or request the appointment,
by any other officer or employee of the Town, of any person to office or employment,
or his or her suspension or removal therefrom, or in any manner take part in the appointment,
discipline, or removal of subordinates and employees of the Town, except as otherwise
provided in this charter. The Selectboard and its members shall deal with that portion
of the service of the Town for which the Manager is responsible solely through the

to the Town Manager a prospective employee for his or her consideration, or bringing
to the attention of the Manager any complaint concerning the actions of any officer
or employee of the Town. This section shall not be construed to prohibit the review
by the Selectboard of actions by the Manager or hearings brought to the Selectboard
by employees pursuant to appellate rights granted them by statute. (Renumbered from 24A V.S.A. § 117-207 by 2023, No. M-19 (Adj. Sess.), § 3, eff. March 29, 2024.)
