DOVER - Town Meeting lasted well into the afternoon in Dover, where points that spurred the most discussion included a merit-based raise for town clerk Andy McLean, an attempted last-minute appropriation for MHCA Dover Cinema, and the budget for the Dover Free Library.
McLean told voters that although he has received cost-of-living increases in line with other town employees over his 19 years working for the town, first as zoning administrator and then as town clerk, he has never asked for a merit-based increase.
