Donald J. Pickard, former Bourne selectman and outgoing town moderator, counts himself as a man of many opinions. He recently shared a few of those opinions, some of which have contrasted sharply with those of current selectmen, with members of the Bourne Charter Review Committee.
Mr. Pickard expressed his feelings on a variety of issues during the committeeâs remote meeting last Wednesday, March 31. Some of the issues he addressed included whether Bourne s town clerk should be appointed or elected, whether the town administrator needs to reside in Bourne, whether one person may serve as the chairperson of multiple town boards or committees, and whether the town should establish a board of sewer commissioners separate from the Bourne Board of Selectmen.
