TONIGHT 5/2 TOWN MEETING — ARTICLE 29

Posted on by

Tues­day 5/2 Town Meet­ing Arti­cle 29

Come at 7pm!!!

Objec­tive #1: Vote NO against “No Action”

Speak­ing points (2 min­utes or less each per­son at the mic) The ini­tial main goal is to help the audi­ence under­stand WHY it is impor­tant that we take action TONIGHT on the arti­cle and not delay. (FYI- A yes vote means that there will be no action tak­en on the arti­cle tonight)

We will need a sim­ple major­i­ty of NO’s against no action. If we are suc­cess­ful, then we can make a motion to vote on the arti­cle tonight “as written”.

Objec­tive #2: Vote NO against Arti­cle 29

Speak­ing points (2 min­utes or less for each per­son at the mic) ALL the rea­sons every­one has been express­ing thus far for why we want this to remain res­i­den­tial lakefront.

If we are suc­cess­ful in mak­ing the motion and after pre­sen­ta­tions and pub­lic com­ment, then there will be a vote on the arti­cle request­ing to rezone to com­mer­cial, so the peti­tion­er will need 2/3 major­i­ty of YES’s to win the vote. VOTE NO if you do not want this prop­er­ty rezoned.

HOW CAN I HELP THE LAKE

Help protect our local water quality by joining the Adopt-a-Drain - Massachusetts program! Storm drains flow directly to streams, lakes, and beaches, acting as a conduit for trash and pollutants. By volunteering just fifteen minutes, twice a month, to keep a nearby storm drain clear of leaves, trash, and other debris, you can make a significant difference. Not only will you protect Lake Maspenock, but you will also protect other local streams, lakes, and beaches closer to you! It's easy to get started: simply Sign Up online, enter your address to find a drain on the map, and adopt it in your neighborhood! You can also easily Track Impact by reporting the debris you collect on your online account.

Adopt-a-Drain!
