Over 1,500 voters turned out yesterday.  That is the highest turn out we've seen in a few years.  Hopefully this trend will continue.

mkr-thank you for facilitating the discussion about Article 3.  I know a lot of folks who read the threads and were educated on both sides of the argument, which I would guess contributed somewhat to the large voter turnout.  Article 3 passed and not by a small margin, but 472 residents voted 'no'  and I think there was only a handful of people that I knew who planned to vote no a month ago.  Honestly, I think having this website with forums to discuss town topics is such a great resource for residents, so a big thanks to Henry and all those who maintain the site. 

Casella is on the Agenda for the Select Board meeting tonight and residents may contribute during the public comment period (I believe).
