Haverhill budget’s fate uncertain after vote

HAVERHILL — Residents at Town Meeting over the weekend ousted the Selectboard chairman and voted against approving the optional meeting procedures Haverhill was following during the COVID-19 state of emergency, creating major budget uncertainty.
In Australian ballot voting on Saturday, Michael Graham defeated Haverhill Selectboard Chairman Darwin Clogston, 514-186.
And warrant Article 2, whose passage was needed to consider more than 30 other articles, was rejected on a 409-264 vote.
Graham, who served on the Selectboard several years ago and runs a family-owned Woodsville insurance agency, said he was running on a platform of “healing Haverhill,” which has been bitterly divided over a plan to create a town fire department and merge the independent district departments into it.
