Conflict of interest? It may be a grey area of RSA 669, but what is right is right and what is wrong is wrong!

 

On November 14th I attended the Gilmanton Selectmen’s meeting to raise a concern regarding conflict of interest. In a 2002 article "Knowing the territory – A survey of Municipal Law for NH Local Officials" it states the following:

 

B. Common Law Incompatibility. Two positions might be incompatible even though they are not listed in RSA 669:7 or any other statute. Whenever two positions bear a special relationship to each other, one being subordinate to and interfering with the other, with inconsistent "loyalties" or responsibilities, then the person cannot legally hold both positions.

 

The concern is over a member of our Board of Selectmen who is married to the Chairperson on the School Board, works as the Administrative Assistant to the Superintendent, takes minutes for the School Board and also the Budget Committee. Does that raise a conflict in your mind?

Follow-up to Gilmanton Town/School Issues:

In reading the meeting minutes of both the Gilmanton Selectmen and the Gilmanton School Board, it is now clear that many missteps were made in their recent conflict. At the time that the School Administration was requesting funds, their own report showed that their daily account balance averaged over $1 million and that they earned $8900 in interest on money they were holding even though they are not allowed to have a fund balance.

 

As of September 15, 2011, the School Administration acknowledges that it will be returning $521,000 of our money. This amount was determined by an audit. All this information is public record. Any citizen can get copies of any public record by going to the appropriate office with the form "Right to Know" Request pursuant to RSA 91A.

 

Again, where are your elected School Board members while the School Administration speaks for them?

 

Thank you,

Douglas Isleib

Gilmanton I.W.
