As reported by HCAM’s Tom Nappi, the Town of Bellingham’s Select Board meeting agenda on April 10 appoints Hopkinton’s William Miller their new Fire Chief. Chief Miller served the HFD for 23 years, succeeding Steve Slaman in August 2021.
Also departing his position is DPW Director John Westerling, reportedly for Natick.
This is a developing story.
In this year alone the Town has lost alot of upper management what’s going on? The recreation director, the town accountant now the DPW director and the fire chief. Who is next? Why the mass exodus?
The Treasurer also left in December! Sounds like the selectboard needs to look into this!
What has happened to this town since Herr, Coutinho, and Tedstone have chosen to leave? They were pillars of democracy. Sad that the town is seeing loss. Is the rumor that the CFO has also resigned true?
Let’s not forget all the police officers that have left for other departments, thirteen at last count. How many town hall department heads? The selectboard needs to wake up or be replaced.
