It’s been 460 Days!
On March 12, 2024 Article 17 passed by a vote of 2686 YES and 1430 NO.
Residents of Londonderry asked to change the Planning Board from appointed positions to elected position.
In the 460 days since the election what has happened?
Virtually nothing.
The Planning Board has ignored the vote, I don’t believe they ever publicly discussed it. Former Town Council Chairman Chad Franz asked “Why is this article a good idea”. Other Town Councilors have questioned if the article was legal and other have simply made excuses and dragged their feet.
There was no expiration date on the warrant article. It’s time for the Town Council to move this forward and do what the resident of Londonderry asked!

It was probably placed on the ballot as a Warrant Art. with 25 signers, when it should have been a Charter change with 1% of reg. voter list signers.
