LUDLOW - The Board of Selectmen has appointed Lisa LaBonte to the town’s Community Preservation Committee.
Raymond Phoenix, chairman of the committee, said there are still two more open seats on the committee.
Phoenix said he is pleased that LaBonte came forward to volunteer to serve on the committee.
The Community Preservation Act Committee is in the process of developing a bylaw to be presented to voters at the annual Town Meeting for approval which would then go to a town election ballot.
The bylaw would allow the town to impose a community preservation tax with the revenues to be appropriated for the preservation of open space in the town.
The Community Preservation Committee was created 10 years ago, Phoenix said, but townspeople have not yet approved a community preservation tax for the preservation of open space, Phoenix said.
Anyone interested in volunteering to serve on a Community Preservation Committee may apply by contacting the selectmen’s office in the Town Hall.
