Dear Honorable Chair and Committee Members, Writing as an enthusiastic participant in town meeting, a town Conservation Commissioner, and appointee to the town ZBA, I need to know in writing and in real time, the impact of a warrant article on our town. I rely on the Select Board’s opinion for guidance. They serve our town during the best and worst times, understand our budget constraints and which expenses are emergent and which can be delayed. This bill disenfranchises citizens by depriving them of the good work that would otherwise be done on their behalf by town officials. Vote ITL on HB 1392.
