Town Meeting preparation

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

 

Andy Port, our Assistant Town Administrator/Town Planner,
and Audrey Barresi, the Advisory Committee Secretary, have graciously been
keeping me abreast of the Advisory Committee’s progress regarding the
articles on the Annual Town Meeting warrant.  For those who are new to
this process, please understand that the Advisory Committee makes recommendations
on all of the various pieces of business that come before us at Town Meeting in
May.  Then, the AdComm makes the main motion on financial articles and the
sponsoring committee makes the main motion on non-financial article(s) that it
has put forward.  It is quite a preparation process that requires countless
hours of deliberation and debate by many dedicated volunteers here in town.

 

Andy just notified me yesterday that “the Warrant for
Hanover’s May 2009 Town Meeting (Special & Annual) with
the Advisory Committee Recommendations and Report of the Capital Improvement
Committee are now on the Hanover website (www.hanover-ma.gov).
 Also available is information on Town Elections and Ballot Questions.”

 

Town Meeting is the purest form of democracy we have. 
Don’t miss your chance to actively participate…start reading the
AdComm recommendations today!  Town Meeting begins Monday, March 4th. 
See you there!
