<p class="MsoNormal">Does anyone know the particulars on this? I know that towns operated quite differently throughout COVID. We were back to work within the town hall at the beginning of April 2020 but some towns worked remotely until quite recently. Our
TM made it clear that we were considered essential employees. Hopefully this is the case with respect to this bill. Who makes the decision as to whom is considered an essential employee and who notifies the retirement association? Thanks.<o:p></o:p></p>
