PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Pittsfield Co-operative Bank has hired Felicia Sayers as assistant branch manager of its South Street location. 
 
Sayers brings with her a strong track record of supervising staff, overseeing branch operations, and mentoring team members, all while maintaining her own portfolio of responsibilities — from opening complex account types and processing loan applications, to ensuring daily compliance and vault cash management. She is certified in an extensive range of financial platforms and is a licensed notary public and Nationwide Multistate Licensing System holder.
 
She most recently was an asset quality collector at Greylock Federal Credit Union, where she facilitated a variety of teller, member service, and collection-related tasks for its members in compliance with established policies, strategies and procedures. Prior to that, Sayers held key roles at TD Bank, where she supervised teller teams, managed vault operations, and trained new hires across Berkshire County. She has consistently been recognized for customer satisfaction and sales performance, winning multiple awards for the highest amount of sales and referrals.
 
"Felicia's extensive knowledge of banking and dedication to helping the community makes her a great asset to the Co-op Bank team," said Reinaldo Roman, vice president and branch manager. "We are excited to have her be a part of our South Street team."
 
Beyond her professional achievements, Sayers has generously volunteered for more than 10 years with organizations such as Labor Lenten of Love building care packages for the homeless in Berkshire County, as well as Berkshire Dream Center clothing drives and holiday wrapping events. When she's not busy managing branch operations and helping members, you can find Sayers volunteering at the Habitat for Humanity's Women's Build and with Thanksgiving Angels fundraising, as well as numerous community events including annual parades in North and Central County.

Lanesborough OKs Open Space Plan, Short-Term Rental Forms

By Breanna SteeleiBerkshires Staff
LANESBOROUGH, Mass. — The Select Board on Monday set fees for short-term rentals and adopted an Open Space and Recreation Plan.
 
Town Administrator Gina Dario discussed the draft for STR registration and certificate of inspection since the new bylaws were passed at the annual town meeting.
 
The draft shows the process to file for inspection through Permit Eyes, the town's online permitting system that includes the state building code and safety requirements. Dario said members of the Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals and the building commissioner looked at other town models to come up with the best process for registration.
 
Inspections will be annually for non-owner occupied units and five years for owner-occupied. The inspection fee is a flat $50. The last suggestion discussed was the posting requirements for key information.
 
Dario said they looked at about four other communities on how they used non-sensitive information on owner contacts. Chair Deborah Maynard motioned to have the information posted both inside and out to help with law enforcement if needed.
 
"I'm going to make a motion that we put that relevant information not only on the inside of the short-term rental but on the outside, so if the police need to respond, ambulance needs to respond, fire especially needs to respond, all that information is there, nobody has to go searching for it," she said. "If push comes to shove, and it's a matter of minutes, that's going to make a big, a big difference in the outcome of the incident."
 
The board then heard a presentation from Berkshire Regional Planning Commission's community planner Andrew McKeever and Open Space and Recreation Committee Vice Chair Mark Hawthorne.
