§ 189-6. Emergency approval of licenses.

A. 

If a permit application is filed between Selectmen's meetings and the application, if not obtained before the next Selectmen's meeting, would cause the applicant irreparable harm, the Chairman will have authority to call an emergency meeting of the Board of Selectmen. As stated above in § 189-1, Meetings, a quorum will consist of at least three members, though any decision of a critical or controversial nature shall be postponed until the full Board can reasonably be in attendance.

B. 

An alternative to the calling of the emergency meeting is for the Board of Selectmen to agree to discuss this particular license in the next scheduled Wednesday afternoon meeting rather than wait for the next scheduled business meeting.

C. 

Whenever possible, the license review process will be moved to the next business meeting of the Board of Selectmen.
