The proposal is intended to prevent temporary appointments from lasting too long, especially in critical city positions. It would require vacancies to be publicly posted quickly and give the City Council a formal role before an interim appointment could be extended. The committee also approved allowing the Fitchburg Liquor License Commission to convert certain beer-and-wine licenses to all-alcohol licenses, while a proposal concerning Saturday office closures was withdrawn.
