Most concerning: The official minutes omit major public comments, including formal letters of no confidence in the Town Administrator and the call for the Chair's recusal. A public record should reflect what was actually said. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/warner/select-board/2026-04-14/

Longer-form draft.
The Warner Select Board meeting on April 14 was marked by significant tension and unresolved questions regarding town leadership and board impartiality. 

Most notably, the Board voted by a majority decision not to reinstate Kathy Frenette as Town Administrator. This decision was not unanimous, signaling internal division on a vacancy that directly impacts town operations and professional management. During the meeting, the public raised serious concerns about the administrator's ability to serve fairly, yet these specific grievances were not addressed by the Board in their response.

Transparency is also in question. During public comment, a resident challenged Board Chair Alfred Hanson to recuse himself from personnel matters involving Ms. Frenette due to a personal legal conflict (a restraining order). The Board did not address this request for recusal. Furthermore, the official minutes for this meeting appear to omit these significant public statements, including the formal challenges to the Board's integrity. 

Residents deserve a leadership body that addresses conflicts of interest openly and a public record that accurately reflects the community's voice. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/warner/select-board/2026-04-14/ #MeetingWatch #WarnerNH
