Submitted by Town Council Candidate Deb Paul
If elected, one of the things I would like to be able to do would be to help move forward the ability for the public to make comments at the beginning and end of all meetings.
I would also be more than happy to answer any questions raised during public comment at the Town Council meetings.
I brought forth a Warrant Article addressing this issue in the 2024 Election and despite an overwhelmingly favorable vote the current Town Council chose to ignore it.
If someone takes the time to go to a meeting they should be able to speak at any point during the meeting with questions. They should have the ability to raise a hand and be allowed to speak, within reason, and have concerns addressed. This may make meetings take a bit longer but I feel it is the right thing to do.
