How these numbers work
- Counted from the official minutes, for 2024–2025 Board only. Committee meetings and routine votes (adjourning, approving minutes) are not counted.
- Attendance counts the meetings where the minutes list Argo as present or absent at the start.
- Only votes the minutes record member by member are counted. Voice votes and votes given only as a count (for example 6-3 with no names) are not.
- Percentages are shown only when there are at least 10 meetings or votes to count.
- A split vote is one where at least one member voted yes and another voted no. “In the minority” means on the side with fewer votes; ties are not counted.
- “Whole board” combines every member’s record for the same term.
These numbers describe the record; they are not a grade. A no vote, an abstention or a minority vote is neither good nor bad. MassVoter never rates officials.

From the minutes
“MOTION: To reconsider the name of the park. Motion by: Joyce Flynn Seconded by: Liz Argo Discussion: The Board continued the discussion on whether to change the name of the former drive-in site to Parkers River Landing. Amended Motion: To change the name to Parkers River Landing. Motion by: Joyce Flynn Seconded by: Liz Argo Discussion: Members noted that while some community outreach had been done via sociai media, there were no documented positive responses supporting the current name, Parkers River Boardwalk Park. Select Board members debated whether the motion was for a formal name change or to initiate a reconsideration process with additional public input. Time constraints were noted, as the park signage needed to be finalized by February. Further discussion and a vote could be scheduled for the next meeting to allow proper consideration, however, since it appeared the vote would be in compliance with what was on the agenda and met open meeting requirements, it was decided to take up the vote on the motion. Roll Call Vote: Liz Argo, aye; Mark Forest, nay; Tracy Post, nay; Joyce Flynn, aye; Dorcas McGurrin, aye. Vote: 3 ayes and 2 nays. The motion carried..” (Motion: Flynn, second: Argo)
