Not less than once every 10 years in each year ending in a 5,
a special committee consisting of 7 members shall be established to
review this charter and make a report, with recommendations, to the
town meeting concerning any proposed amendments that the committee
may determine to be necessary or desirable. The committee shall consist
of: 3 members to be appointed by the select board; 2 members to be
appointed by the finance committee; and 2 members to be appointed
by the town moderator. The members appointed by the town moderator
shall be voters not otherwise involved in town government as a member
of any appointed or elected town agency. The committee shall meet
to organize within 30 days of the call of the select board to establish
the committee, notwithstanding the failure of any agency to make its
designated appointment.
Any appointed town officer or member of a multiple-member body,
whether appointed for a fixed or indefinite term, may be suspended
or removed from office after the opportunity for a hearing by the
appointing authority. Nothing in this section shall be construed as
granting a right to a hearing when a person who has been appointed
for a fixed term is not reappointed when the original term expires.
