Select Board · Meeting of November 3, 2026

Ludlow's Select Board leaned toward making the interim town administrator permanent but put the item on the Nov. 17 agenda. Board members favored promoting from within, and interim Administrator Ribeiro said she wants the job. Members cited her 11 to 12 years with the town, and Board member Sanchez noted the bylaws do not require a search.

Earlier, the board voted 5-0 to adopt a new entertainment license application for 2027 and 5-0 to appoint attorney Andrew Loyne to the Zoning Board of Appeals. In a joint budget kickoff, one speaker said six benefit accounts were over-budgeted by more than $1 million last year, mostly health insurance.
