ORANGE - The Board of Selectmen voted to make an oral statement that racism is a public health crisis and to form a task force to explore the issue.
The board did not create a written resolution stating that racism is a health crisis, after a motion was made to do so.
Following a showing of residents in favor of a resolution at a prior forum, the board recently had a discussion of the issue before taking the vote to form a task force and to make a statement.
