What to expect at tonight's meeting.

Below is a high level guide of expected meeting components and timing (subject to change!) to help guide participants, especially those of us who might not be familiar with Town Meeting procedures. We've also indicated in bold below opportunities to support the Citizens' Petition through your vote.


Please stay through the entirety of the discussion and vote of all warrant articles. Even once a vote is held, there can be a Motion to Reconsider (effectively, a vote on whether we should revote.) If the motion succeeds, we would revote on the article at hand, and this second vote would be final. This can take place at any point prior to meeting adjournment.
