2024 Spring Town Meeting Revised Date

To:                          All Departments, Boards, Committees and Commissions

From:                    Mark W. Haddad – Town Manager

Subject:                Spring Town Meeting – CHANGED TO TUESDAY, MARCH 26, 2024 

Date:                     January 23, 2024

Please be advised that at the regularly scheduled meeting of the Select Board held on Monday, January 22, 2024, the Board voted to change the date of the 2024 Spring Town Meeting from April 27, 2024 to Tuesday, March 26, 2024.  The Warrant will now close at the close of business on Friday, February 9, 2024.

All articles should be submitted in writing to the Select Board as soon as possible to allow for as much time as possible for legal and financial review.  All articles should be submitted with a written summary.  These summaries will be included in the Spring Town Meeting Warrant so they must be submitted with the proposed Article.  The following is the proposed timeline:

  • Tuesday, January 23, 2024 – Warrant for 2024 Spring Town Meeting Opens
  • Friday, February 9, 2024 – Warrant for 2024 Spring Town Meeting Closes
  • Monday, February 26, 2024 – SB – FinCom Public Hearing on Articles
  • Monday, March 4, 2024 – Select Board Finalizes Warrant
  • Tuesday, March 12, 2024 – Post Warrant
  • Tuesday, March 26, 2024 – Spring Town Meeting

As has been the case in the past, please plan on attending any meeting of the Select Board in which they review an article you have submitted.  I will provide all Departments, Boards, Committees and Commissions with a schedule once it is developed.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.  Please feel free to contact me with any additional questions or concerns.
