On the first day of 2013 we asked selectmen to identify an item they would like to see happen this year.

Below is what the five board members had to say:

Chairman Rich Malagrifa would like to know the status of underground infrastructure when it comes to drainage.

Barry Greenfield would like the state legislature to adopt Swampscott's home rule petition.

Glenn Kessler would like infrastructure repairs to take place.

Jill Sullivan would like to see the Temple and Greenwood Avenue properties sold and developed.

David Van Dam would like to see town services maintained and the cost of living lowered for the residents.
