As we approach the deadline for Citizens Petition Warrant Articles we should review last years articles. The articles below were passed on March 12, 2024 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Article 17<\/strong>, Yes 2686 \/ No 1430 \u2013 Planning Board as elected positions? While some boards chose to implement some aspect of the warrant articles others have not. The Council held a few meetings to discuss the articles, but never recommended solidifying anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There have been three Town Council Budget workshops, all of which had no public comment after the presentation. Article 18 would have allowed residents to provide comment, but the Town Council has refused to add a second public comment period at the end of their meetings.
