PEMBROKE - April 8, 2026 - Following a marathon two-hour executive session, the Pembroke Select Board voted 4-1 to ratify a new contract for Town Manager Bill Chenard. The decision was marked by a rare public dissent from Board Chair Tracy Marino, who cited “unresolved performance and conduct issues” as her primary reason for voting against the agreement.
