Karen Bemis

My name is Karen and I live and vote in Bristol and for several years worked for the Newfound Lake Region Association, whose mission is to protect Newfound Lake. Local lake associations are nonprofit organizations, and many rely on essential municipal appropriations approved through warrant articles or budget lines to carry out lake protection and management work that benefits the entire community. I would like to see an AMENDMENT to the bill to allow towns to continue working with trusted nonprofits while ensuring public dollars are used responsibly and accounted for clearly.
