Despite these direct criticisms regarding governance and management competency, the Select Board offered no response to the public. They moved directly to the next items on the agenda without addressing the community's calls for structural change.

As Warner enters the 2027 budget season, the question remains: Will the Board address these calls for professional administration, or will the current management style continue? #LocalGovernment #Accountability https://meetingwatch.org/nh/warner/select-board/2026-04-28/

Longer-form draft.
The April 28 Select Board meeting in Warner was marked by significant public dissatisfaction regarding how the town is being governed. 

During the public comment period, residents raised high-level concerns about the Board's management capabilities. Specifically, speakers argued that the current Select Board structure is inadequate for the town's needs and called for the hiring of a professional Town Administrator. Other residents urged the Board to prioritize fiscal responsibility and run the town with more business-like prudence. 

Notably, the Select Board offered no response to these criticisms. There was no discussion or acknowledgment of the request for a Town Administrator or the concerns regarding financial management style. 

As the town begins the 2027 budget and Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) process, these questions about management competency and professional administration remain unresolved. We will continue to monitor how the Board responds to these community demands for better governance. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/warner/select-board/2026-04-28/ #MeetingWatch #WarnerNH
