It's Complicated | Braintree's Richard Bowen wears more hats of civic service than most, He is currently town moderator, assistant clerk, and selectboard member. He has also served as town clerk, assistant town treasurer, justice of the peace, and a member of the school board; so many positions, a friend once joked, "If Richard talked to himself, he'd be in violation of Vermont public meetings law!"
