Internal board divisions and split votes.
The Warner Select Board remains divided. On March 3, the Board split 2-1 on both supporting SB538 energy legislation and selecting the 2025 auditing firm.

Longer-form draft.
During the March 3 Select Board meeting, two significant issues highlighted the tension between administrative efficiency and strict adherence to town policy. First, the Board voted 2-1 to select Vachon Clukay to conduct the 2025 Town Audit. This decision was controversial because the town only received two bids, while current town policy requires three quotes for such services. While the majority argued that waiting for more bidders would be 'reckless' and cause unnecessary delays, the dissent raised a critical question: Should the town bypass its own procedural rules to save time? Second, the Board addressed a serious concern raised by a resident regarding an $8,000 Land Use Change Tax (LUCT) dispute and a resulting property lien. The resident alleges these financial burdens stem from errors in the town's land use maps. While the Select Board has agreed to investigate the matter and review the maps provided, the situation underscores the real-world financial consequences that administrative errors can have on Warner residents. As we approach the March 10 Town Election, residents should stay informed on how the Board balances policy, procedure, and public accountability. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/warner/select-board/2026-03-03/ #MeetingWatch #WarnerNH
