Amherst Town Admin Confirmed To Be On Paid Leave
A selectman gave a few more details at a citizens meeting last night.

Town Adminstrator Jim O'Mara has been confirmed to be on paid leave after a unaminous decision from the board of selectmen, according to The Union Leader.
Selectman Dwight Brew was able to answer a few questions at the Amherst Citizens Association meeting Tuesday night. He also confirmed that the board have not signed a gag order on the issue, but are following the direction of their legal counsel.
This issue has been a mystery to Amherst citizens after O'Mara was put on administrative leave Dec. 3. The ACA has lead the charge to get answers on the exact reason on why this happened, and how it is affecting town operations.
