There are two new members, Thorsten Hamp and Karlene Turrentine, who are serving partial terms to end on Dec. 31, 2019.
Ed Gary, now in his third term which will end Dec. 31, 2020, is the chairman. The other members are Joe Kimray (first term, Dec. 31, 2019), Colleen M. Sharpe (second term, Dec. 31, 2019), Al Hinton, a former town engineer (first term, Dec. 31 2018), Karin Kuropas (first term, Dec. 31, 2018), Chuck Moseley (second term, Dec. 31, 2020) and Grif Bond Jr. (first term, Dec. 31, 2020).
