A joint meeting of the Woodstock Town Selectboard and Village Trustees that was abruptly adjourned on Tuesday evening, July 8, following the public comment session, has not yet been rescheduled.
The early July meeting had been scheduled in part to take up the matter of Woodstock municipal manager Eric Duffy’s annual performance review, which was intended to take place in a confidential executive session and then discussed briefly in open public session.
Confirming a conversation that the Standard had late last week with Woodstock administrative coordinator for boards and committees Kitty Mears Koar, trustees vice chair Jeff Kahn, who is filling in for the village body’s chair Seton McIlroy while she is on vacation, said earlier this week he was “rooting for the last week of this month” for the date and time for the rescheduled meeting of the town’s two governing bodies.
“The meeting will be scheduled — it will be decided soon,” Kahn said Tuesday morning. “[Municipal manager] Eric Duffy is away right now, and so, too, is the interim police chief. It’s vacation time right now,” Kahn added. “I am hopeful for the meeting to happen by the end of the month.”
