PARIS The SAD 17 board of directors Monday approved a proposal from an ad hoc committee to move forward with hiring a new superintendent. Part of the proposal included increasing the funds for the search from $8,000 to $20,000.
The plan gives giving the board chairwoman and the superintendent search committee authority to oversee the search process, including all decision-making through the search. It also approved the proposal with the Maine School Boards Association. The committee also requested that the funds allocated to the search be increased from $8,000 to $20,000.
“We need to move ahead and do what we need to without having the board vote on every change on the proposal we have with MSMA,” Committee Chair Curtis Cole told the Board. “The $8,000 is based on a limited number of applicants…if we don’t spend the extra money it will go back into contingency.”

WEST PARIS On Saturday, March 6, at 10 a.m. the West Paris annual town meeting will take place at the town fire station at 25 Kingsbury Street.
Incumbent Selectman Mike Grass will not be seeking re-election for a three-year term and as of now there is no one else running for the soon to be vacant seat. Town Manager Wade Rainey said someone could be nominated the day of the meeting, but currently has only heard from one person who’s expressed interest in the job. If no one is chosen to fill Grass’s spot on the board a special town meeting will have to be held at a later date when someone decides to run, according to Rainey.

Congress careened toward a fresh showdown with President Trump, as House Democrats said they plan to vote on impeaching him Wednesday over accusations he incited supporters to storm the U.S. Capitol.
