Two years ago, the Select Board interviewed over 40 candidates for the screening committee, resulting in Emily Sisson and Christopher Feudo being selected. This year, only 14 of those named above made the final cut as a handful of residents withdrew beforehand. The board anticipates having a new Town Manager in place around March of 2024 as Fidel Maltez’s final day in Reading is December 31, 2023.
The 7:30PM meeting will take place in the Select Board meeting room at Town Hall. The public can attend in person or watch via several options: via a broadcast on RCTV’s YouTube channel at this link or on the RCTV Government Channel (Xfinity ch 22, Verizon ch 33).
