The Nov. 4 China select board meeting began with a short presentation recognizing retiring member Janet Preston.
To applause from the audience and board members, Town Manager Rebecca Hapgood gave Preston a certificate in appreciation of her service to the town, and later a bouquet of flowers.
Fellow board members thanked Preston. “We didn’t always agree, but it’s been a pleasure,” Blane Casey said, and chairman Wayne Chadwick concurred.
Preston, who was first elected in 2020, said it has been “an honor to serve the people of China,” and an interesting experience. But, she said, she looks forward to having more time with her grandchildren.
