From the Sherborn Select Board’s official minutes, posted in the town’s Agenda Center (Select Board). We check every vote against the Select Board members present and quote the exact wording. MassVoter never grades or scores officials. No member photos yet: the town’s website shows none, and MassVoter has not found a captioned photo of any current member.
