WINCHENDON -- May 11, 2026, Westminster Board of Selectmen reorganizes, approves Lexipol policy contracts and pickleball court painting. The board, meeting Monday, elected Mike Cooley as chair, Missy Banks as vice chair, and Sam Albert as clerk before clearing a $140,837.05 town warrant. Members unanimously authorized two Lexipol LLC agreements, one for municipal administration covering July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, and one for the Westminster Police Department covering May 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, bringing both under the same policy management platform already used by the town's fire department.
