Clarksburg Hires New Town Clerk/Assessor's Clerk

By Tammy Daniels iBerkshires Staff
CLARKSBURG, Mass. — One small town's loss is another's win. The Select Board voted unanimously on Monday to offer the new post of town clerk/assessor's clerk to Amber Holland.
 
She accepted the post and will start April 6, training with Town Clerk Marilyn Gomeau until her retirement in May.
 
Holland has held multiple hats over the past 18 years working for Readsboro, Vt., including as the elected town clerk since 2011, selectmen's clerk, assessor's clerk, utility clerk, and administrator fill-in. 
 
When asked if she can do a budget for the town clerk's office, Holland replied that she prepares the draft budget for the whole town. 
 
The board was impressed by the range of her responsibilities and, said board member Colton Andrews, saw her as the "best option for plug and play."
 
"I think her ability to kind of transition between multiple different departments and job titles, I think really kind of separated her between the three applicants," he said. "And I think especially the way this office operates and Town Hall operates."
 
Board member Seth Alexander also was impressed by her experience, particularly in running elections, and Chair Daniel Haskins said her knowledge of municipal operations stood out.
