8. Fiscal Year 2027 Budget Outlook Discussion with Mansfield Fire Department, Mansfield Police
Department and Mansfield Department of Public Works
Chief Sellon came forward and began his budget outlook by stating that the police department is understaffed.
He stated that there should be 2.5 officers for every 1,000 people and they are at roughly 1.6 today. He noted
they also have the least number of officers amongst surrounding communities. Chief Sellon noted that the
Town saved half a million dollars by going to regional dispatch and it was supposed to improve services and
save money. Chief Sellon then stated that the money saved was supposed to be reinvested back into the police
department but it was not. He explained that the administrative needs have increased due to the changes with
the POST commission and changes to public records laws. Chief Sellon noted that they have received grants but
one grant in particular states that if a cop is cut in the next budget than they have to return $250,000 of
funding. He stated that everything needs to be looked at including SEMRECC, the animal shelter and the Xfinity
Center. Mr. Wilk asked the Chief to compare the fees that other Towns charge to see where Mansfield is lower
and should be increased. Mr. Roche commented that in speaking with Town Counsel there are no other
communities to compare the Xfinity Center too. Chief Sellon reiterated his staffing level concerns and noted
that out of the towns that make up SEMRECC, Mansfield has the highest calls for service with the least number
of officers. Mr. Wilk asked Mr. Reinke for some data analysis so that information can be shared and to help
them understand where the baseline is. The Chief also noted that amongst the Police Chiefs he has the second
highest tenure but is the lowest paid. Mr. Loukos commented that it would be helpful to know what happens
with overtime when you add a cop. Ms. Doherty then asked Chief Sellon to explain scheduled and unscheduled
overtime. The Chief responded that scheduled OT is based on the vacation time that everyone is given and
unscheduled overtime is typically investigations. He noted that one major incident can greatly impact the
budget. Mr. Feck asked the Chief about the savings from going to regional dispatch and why the funds did not
get back to police. Chief Sellon responded that decisions were made due to other financial needs elsewhere in
Town. Mr. Wilk noted that he was on the Finance Committee at the time SEMRECC was established and it was
sold to the residents and committees that there would be savings from not having dispatchers. Mr. Roche
noted that other communities were also expected to join which would also reduce the cost. Chief Sellon stated
that they were supposed to get a new radio system, tower and operating system but it has not happened and
there have been lots of missed opportunities to add communities.
Deputy Fire Chief John Terry was present and introduced himself. He stated that he was here on behalf of Chief
Desrosiers who was asked to submit additional cuts to the fire department. He began by stating that the fire
departments budget is 80% salary and benefits and then 20% materials and equipment. The Chief has made
cuts and they are down to the bare bones. He stated that they have submitted $72,800 in additional cuts and
fifty percent of that is overtime. He stated that unscheduled overtime is for things that are unpredictable and
scheduled overtime is known and planned based on each person's vacation time they have. He stated that they
will not be able to run the second ambulance by losing overtime in the budget. Deputy Chief commented that
from January 11t to the 191h they had 29 simultaneous calls for service. They are considering running the night
Select Board Meeting Minutes
January 21, 2026
shift short and not running the second ambulance. They stated that they run a shift currently at nine and going
down to eight would not allow them to run a second ambulance. Deputy Chief stated that there are only two
on an engine and two in an ambulance and he then provided examples where a structure fire requires 17 on
site. Another example was that a cardiac arrest patient requires four people in the ambulance. If you drop to
eight there would only be a single ambulance and response times would be impacted. He noted that even
though they are supposed to run a shift at nine the shift is usually run at eight due to sick, vacation or long-
term injuries. He also stated that an ambulance that goes to the hospital can take 1-2 hours to return.
Mr. Mike Ahern from Public Buildings came forward and stated that there are four full time employees and
three part time employes and they are responsible for thirty-nine buildings excluding the schools,
procurement, general maintenance of the buildings, managing capital projects and disposing of surplus vehicles
and equipment. He stated that the reality is the budget has been cut and they have not had enough funds for
repairs and maintenance for the last four to five years. Mr. Ahern stated that they have reduced maintenance
services which at Town Hall they have gone from five days of cleaning down to two. Ms. Doherty asked what
will be happening with his salary when the PFAS projects are done and not be going to the water enterprise
account. Mr. Ahern responded that it will show a large increase in the public buildings budget. Mr. Roche asked
when that would happen and Mr. Ahern responded the following budget not this next one.
Mr. Andy Littig, Highway Operations Manager came forward and stated that his department has thirteen
employees. He stated that the department focuses on roadways, signage, sewer, parks and commons, 27 acres
of athletic field, cemeteries, vehicle maintenance, snow and ice removal and 24-hour coverage for
emergencies. He stated that they also empty 110 trash barrels throughout Town twice a week. He explained
where the department spends their time and examples of what reductions to his budget could mean. The
examples included a reduction to grass mowing, brush cutting and mulching. Mr. Wilk asked Mr. Littig to
provide the savings of having the vehicle maintenance in house for his budget presentation. Ms. Doherty asked
if vehicle maintenance expenses are charged back to the enterprise accounts and Mr. Littig responded that
they are and all departments with vehicles have a vehicle maintenance line, however they are under funded
especially the fire department. He explained that they are not allowed to do some of the vehicle maintenance
on the fire apparatus because they are certified. Mr. Littig explained that this year the fire line was $25,000 and
they expended that in the first three months of the year because every time the fire apparatus has to go back
to the dealer it is a minimum of $3,000. Mr. Roche asked about snow and ice budget. Mr. Monticello stated
that they budgeted $390,000 and Mr. Littig responded they have about $285,000 left. Mr. Loukos commented
if anyone is watching these are real life implications of budget cuts. Ms. Doherty thanked Police, Fire and DPW
for the work they do. Lastly, Mr. Littig commented that in the last storm Easton posed they had fifty-five pieces
of equipment out and Mansfield only had thirty-two however Mansfield has ten more road miles than Easton.

most recent newsletter and the Zoning Board of Appeals seemed to be a close fit for what he is interested in.

disagreed and stated that as Clerk he would not want to summarize someone else's words. Ms. Champagne

themselves. Mr. Roche asked who is going to decide if something is appropriate to read or not, where is the
threshold. Ms. Doherty stated that if something was inappropriate it could be sent to Town Counsel for them
