ORLEANS – The Orleans Select Board has voted to hire former Truro town manager Darrin Tangeman as its new director of municipal finance, pending a finalized contract.
The Select Board told Tangeman during an interview at its August 20th meeting that there was a big callout from the public for long-term capital planning. He said he would make it a primary project.
Tangeman resigned from the Truro town manager position in April after four years.
Revenue woes were reported in Orleans in 2019, and officials said at the time a new tax would soon be needed.
It was reported earlier this year that the town was considering a rental registration fee.
A working group is also mulling a property tax exemption for year-round residents, as their neighbors in Chatham have done.
