Members of the police commission and Select Board discussed a proposal to expand the Wolfeboro Police Commission from three members to five and described a two‑step approach: put a petition/warrant article before town voters, then seek enabling legislation at the state level.

Commission members said they plan to ask residents whether they support increasing the commission's size; if the town vote is affirmative the commission expects to work with a state legislator to introduce legislation to permit the change. The commissioners said legal counsel (Nathan) and an advisor (John McDonald) recommended seeking the legislative change after demonstrating local voter support.

Board members asked a logistical question: if voters approve the change in 2026, can the town appoint two interim commissioners immediately or must the change await further legislative enactment and scheduling (the commissioners noted they will consult town counsel to determine whether interim appointments are allowed). No formal vote to place a warrant article was taken at the June 12 meeting; commissioners said they will prepare a petition article for voter consideration and coordinate with counsel on the legislative approach.
