BELLOWS FALLS â The Rockingham Select Board and Bellows Falls Village Trustees took their first steps Tuesday evening to address the financial mess left behind by former Finance Director Shannon Burbela.
At the suggestion of Municipal Manager Scott Pickup, the two boards, meeting jointly Tuesday evening, established a new finance committee to work with Pickup on the financial issues, as well as find a new finance director.
Pickup said the town and village needed to âre-establish baseline credibility.â
The town and village have brought in the New England Management Resource Center to help sort through the extensive problems uncovered in the finances, which extend from balancing its bank accounts to misfiled and miscategorized revenue and expenses, lack of correct tax status, and overcharged credit card fees.

BELLOWS FALLS â The town of Rockingham and the village of Bellows Falls have âparted companyâ with its finance director, Shannon Burbela, after a critical audit report and other examination found numerous problems and deficiencies in the village and townâs books dating back to 2019.
Burbelaâs last day was June 14, according to Municipal Manager Scott Pickup. She was paid about $76,000 a year from the town, village and the villageâs water and sewer departments, according to Bellows Falls Village President Deborah Wright.
Pickup said Burbela, a resident of Chester, would remain as a consultant to the town and village as it sorts through various issues, including pending litigation against the village while Burbela was also acting as personnel director.

It s been a challenging 12 months for those with their hand on the tiller of corporate IT. Over the last year, CIOs have been thrown one curveball after another, forced to hit the ground running and adapt quickly to circumstances far beyond the bounds of normal business operations. The emergence of COVID-19 has sparked a wave of digital transformation unlike any we ve seen since the birth of Web 2.0, and CIOs have been leading the charge.
It was sink-or-swim in the early days; widespread lockdowns meant every organisation was forced to adapt to a digital-first business model, and those that couldn t found themselves in serious trouble. Even hospitality – previously one of the last industries to still be largely driven by face-to-face customer service – has found itself transformed by in-app ordering and payment systems.
Large organizations with global reach rely on new technologies ranging from cloud computing to robotic process automation to make their operations and workflows smoother, faster and more efficient.
