Dalton Select Board authorizes a new electronic payroll system expected to save 1,500 staff hours a year. Town Manager Eric Anderson will negotiate a roughly $14,000 first-year contract with Time Clock Plus, calling it "a good move for the town." Members also cleared James Patrick Carsell of a disqualifying conflict of interest and seated him as the Board of Health's voting representative, and referred two citizen-petitioned warrant articles on movable tiny homes to the Planning Board for a May 20 hearing after Town Counsel Tim Zessen flagged a procedural lapse. Zoning Enforcement Officer Brian Duvelle is fining Berkshire County Concrete $300 a day, now on its fourth day, for missing a restoration deadline, "every day the violation exists will constitute a new violation." The board also learned the East Housatonic Street bridge closes Wednesday for roughly six weeks of state-funded repair.
