The names of the candidates were officially listed on the Select Board's regular meeting agenda, posted ahead of their meeting on Wednesday. The board is seeking a permanent replacement for the town's top administrative post.
 
Nicholas Caccamo, of Pittsfield, is currently serving as the Town Administrator for Williamsburg. Caccamo is also a former Pittsfield City Councilor, having stepped down from the council in 2021 to take the Williamsburg role. Peter White, also a Pittsfield resident, is the current Pittsfield City Council President.
 
The third finalist, Dillon Maxfield, is from Amherst. He is involved in Amherst town government and works for the town of Easthampton as an Associate Planner.
 
Interviews will take place on Saturday, Oct. 25, at 8 a.m. in Adams Town Hall.
 
The search for the new administrator was aided by Groux-White Consulting LLC of Lexington, with the town having authorized then-interim Town Administrator Kenneth Walto to enter into the contract.
 
Groux-White Consulting sent out 400 invitations and brochures and contacted every manager in Western Mass. 27 managers from border communities in Vermont and New York State were also contacted.
 
The vacancy was created when former Adams Town Administrator Jay Green was hired as the Lenox Town Manager in 2024. Currently, Librarian Holi Jayko is filling the role of Interim Town Administrator.
