Board of Selectmen Mission Statement
Townsend is a special community in many ways
but particularly because of its commitment to maintaining a rural sense of a
small New England Town. It is the mission of the Townsend Board of Selectmen to
provide a wide range of high quality services to the citizens of Townsend while
at the same time support a strong economic base for the Town. It is the goal of
the Board of Selectmen to provide services as economically as possible so that
living or doing business in the community remains affordable, while preserving
something close to the current balance of reliance on residential and commercial
property.
Volunteer Opportunities
Town government needs citizens who are
willing to give time in the service of their community. The Town of
Townsend relies on the dedication and resources provided by volunteers who serve
our community in many different ways.
Are you willing to put your knowledge and
experience to work, and help your Town government function at it's highest
potential?
