Town Council discussion on 10/6/2025 regarding a highly contentious situation involving the Leech Library Board of Trustees, which is apparently experiencing internal chaos and facing a statement of no confidence. A significant portion of the debate focuses on a proposal to appoint alternate trustees to the library board, which many council members oppose due to concerns that it would not solve the underlying problems and would undermine the voters’ role in selecting board members. Councilors express frustration over the ongoing conflict, attempts at mediation that were rejected by the trustees, and the mounting legal costs to the town, ultimately passing a motion to take no action on appointing alternates, hoping that voters will resolve the matter in an upcoming election.
