Pembroke Select Board
How the Pembroke Select Board voted, from the Select Board’s official minutes. 5 Select Board members elected townwide. Sean Keegan joined the board after the May 17, 2025 town election; Steven Ciciotti left. On May 21, 2025 the board chose Tracy Marino as Chair, John G. Brown, Jr. as Vice Chair and Richard Flynn as Clerk. The town has posted minutes for this board only through April 1, 2026. Covers 21 meetings, May 21 to April 1, 2026.
A monthly email on what it voted on, starting in November.
What does the Select Board do? It is the town’s executive board. It prepares the Town Meeting warrant (the list of articles voters decide), appoints members of many town boards, hires the town’s top staff, signs warrants to pay town bills, and grants licenses and permits.
Town Meeting, not the Select Board, votes the town budget and town bylaws.

How the town can raise its score
- Minutes posted (+1): Post approved minutes for every meeting on the town website. Don’t require a sign-in to view them.
- Each vote named (+1): On any vote that isn’t unanimous, write how each member voted. For example: “Motion passed 3–2. Yes: Smith, Jones, Lee. No: Brown, Silva.” A roll call on split votes is the simplest way to do this.
- Posted quickly (+2): Post minutes within 30 days. If approval takes longer, post a draft marked “Draft – not yet approved” and replace it later.
- Readable text (+1): Save minutes straight from Word or Google Docs as a PDF instead of printing and scanning them. If a scan is needed, turn on the scanner’s “searchable PDF” or text-recognition setting.
- Member photos (+0.5): Show a photo of each member on the board’s web page, with their name, the date their term ends and how to contact them. A group photo of the members, with everyone named in the caption or on the same page, earns half a point.

What Town Meeting decided
In Pembroke, Town Meeting — not the Select Board — votes the town budget, bylaws and zoning. Here is what it did with each article, in the Town Clerk’s own words. Any registered voter can take part, and most votes are by voice or show of hands, so there is no list of who voted which way.

Not here yet: the May 13, 2025 Special Town Meeting held within the Annual Town Meeting (3 articles; its votes are not printed in the 2025 Annual Town Report) and the May 12, 2026 Annual and Special Town Meetings (only the warrant is posted; results will be in the 2026 Annual Town Report).
Titles are short descriptions of each article from the official record; the quoted words are the Town Clerk’s. A vote at Town Meeting is not the final word on everything: some articles also need a ballot vote (such as a tax override) or the Attorney General’s approval (bylaws).

Meetings
About missing minutes
Loaded: every Select Board meeting with minutes on the town website from January 2018 through April 1, 2026 (2018 to 2024 from the town's Document Center, 2025 and 2026 from its Agenda Center). Not here: minutes before 2018 (the Document Center has them back to 2010), executive-session minutes, and minutes the town has not posted yet (every meeting after April 1, 2026, so nothing yet for the board chosen in May 2026). Pembroke's minutes are typed and give the mover, the seconder and the result for each vote ("the motion passed unanimously"); votes in 2020 and 2021 remote meetings are roll calls by name. Two 2021 files and five 2026 files are scans, which we read by computer text recognition. When the minutes say a vote was unanimous we show every member present as voting yes; when they give a roll call, or a count with the members who voted no or abstained named, we show each member's vote as recorded. When the minutes only say a motion "passed", with no count, no names and no mention of a unanimous vote, we show the result only and never assume it was unanimous. Where the minutes give only a count without names, or a roll call names a member the minutes do not list as present, or the names and the count do not match, we show the count only and add a note. In early 2025 several sets of minutes leave a member off the attendance list even though that member made or seconded motions; those votes show the count only. Members who had not yet arrived or had left are left out of that vote. At joint meetings (Advisory Committee, School Committee, Board of Health, Planning Board appointments) only the Select Board members' votes are shown. We will ask the town to confirm any noted vote.
Votes where members disagreed
Most board votes are unanimous. These are the ones where at least one member voted no or abstained, newest first.
