South Hadley Select Board names representatives and charts budget course. Chair Jeff Cyr's board unanimously approved designations of the Board of Assessors and School Committee as Special Municipal Employees, and named Chuck Romboletti as the town's voting representative to the 2026 Massachusetts Municipal Association conference. Members reviewed override scenarios from $3 million to $9 million, directing that all budget discussions before Town Meeting assume no override pending April's election outcome.
Town Administrator Lisa Wong reported that seven towns have committed to joining the Group Insurance Commission, though analysis showed GIC plans would cost both the town and employees more than the current trust arrangement.
