24 V.S.A. App. ch. 108, § 301: Officers

The Town of Bristol shall continue to have the officers as provided for towns by the general laws of the State. However, there shall be added to the existing three members of the Selectboard an additional two members for a total of five. The two additional members shall be first elected at the 1995 Bristol annual Town meeting. The two additional members shall serve for two-year terms except that one of them elected at said 1995 annual Town meeting shall only be elected for an initial one-year term. The Town may vote to discontinue the positions of the two additional members at an annual or special Town meeting warned for that purpose. From the effective date of this merger until the 1995 Bristol annual Town meeting, the two additional members’ positions shall be filled by two of the persons in office as trustees of the Village of Bristol on the day before said effective merger date as designated by the incumbent Board of Trustees of the Village of Bristol.
