Town Meeting passes on recall provision

Town Meeting voted to indefinitely postpone consideration of a petition to the General Court to insert a recall provision in our Town Charter. The Finance Committee recommended that the article be postponed, the Town Counsel stated that, while legal, there were several areas of the proposed article which may be problems, and ultimately the Town Meeting members decided to delay action on the measure

I was very proud to be a town meeting member tonight. The vote was truly representative of what the majority of the town really wants or should I say, doesn't want. Thanks TM for voting with common sense and reason.

I agree. Town meeting did the right thing. I think most people could see this for what is was. We don't need to further divide the town.Let's get the charter com. going if we want to make changes for 2010. I'm in favor of that.
