ROCHESTER — The Rochester Select Board unanimously expressed support for nine warrant articles at the Jan. 22 Special Town Meeting, including one to allow the fire chief to work beyond the mandatory retirement age of 65 and another to double the money that seniors can save on their taxes by working for the town.

Prior to the warrant being discussed at the Jan. 2 Select Board meeting, members of the Finance Committee voted in favor of all financially-related articles. The issues will be decided by voters at Special Town Meeting, to be held at 7 p.m. Jan. 22 at Rochester Memorial School.

Issues to be decided by voters at the Special Town Meeting include a request to allow Fire Chief Scott Weigel to continue his employment beyond his upcoming 65th birthday, as mandated by law. The chief said he would like to continue on in his position to see through the work of a potential new fire station. The article allows him to work no later than his 67th birthday, although Select Board Chair Paul Ciaburri said after the meeting that age limit could potentially be further extended at a future Town Meeting.

Voters will also be asked to increase the maximum amount senior citizens can earn through working for the town, known as the senior tax write-off, to $1,500. The current maximum seniors can earn through the program is $750. Finance Committee members said this could allow seniors to remain in town by cutting their expenses while allowing them to do work that might otherwise have to be paid for.

Another issue asks voters to approve the transfer of $400,000 from the Highway Improvement Stabilization Fund to make improvements to roads in town.

Select Board Member Adam Murphy said he would “love to know’’ which roads will be worked on. Rochester Town Administrator Glenn Cannon said an exact list is difficult to provide because environmental issues or other unforeseen circumstances could force specific roadwork plans to change.

Voters will also be asked whether to approve certain expenses totaling $21,270 for capital improvements.

These include: $2,770 to update the town zoning map; $3,500 to hire a consultant to review and revise Planning Board rules and regulations; $3,000 to install a walkway to the lower level side door of the library; $7,000 for walkway repairs at the Council on Aging and $5,000 for walk-in cooler roof replacement and related refrigeration work, also for the Council in Aging.

Voters will also have their say on the transfer of $54,380 that was previously approved by Town Meeting for a public safety feasibility study to work on design for the potential building. No design has been created, Cannon said, but “we want to have the money available’’ should the need arise.

Another warrant article asks voters to approve the addition of a parcel of land at 621 County Road to the Cranberry Highway Smart Growth Overlay District. This would allow the parcel to be included in proposed redevelopment of the 32 acres in the plan, according to the wording of the warrant.
