At a Special Town Meeting on Jan. 30th, Town Meeting members voted in favor of putting the question on the annual town election ballot April 4th, on whether or not the Town Treasurer/Tax Collector should be an elected position or appointed. 

Floyd Carman is retiring at the end of his current term in April. He has served 18 years as Belmont's Town Treasurer and Tax Collector.

Town Meeting members debated for nearly two hours on Jan. 30th with nearly 100 members sharing there views both for and against making the position appointed.

A central part of Belmont Media Center’s mission is to provide an open & neutral political forum for free speech and community dialogue in order to educate and inform Belmont residents about developments and news, locally and beyond. The absence of an opinion & letters page in the local newspaper make this part of our mission more needed than before.

In advance of the November general election, BMC is offering “Speak Out Belmont” a video forum for residents to present their opinions and advocacy for candidates, issues, and topics.

Belmont Media Center (BMC) is seeking qualified job applicants for the position of "News Producer", in charge of Belmont Journal & News Now, our hyper local news magazine and flash news feature.

Four years ago, at the urging of and with the support of Belmont Media Center Board of Directors, I hired BMC’s first News Director, Frédérique Rigoulot, a former French journalist who had recently moved to Belmont with her family.
Together, Fred & I created a new hyper-local, community-sourced news program, Belmont Journal.
