Chair raises transmitting playground warrant article to state legislative delegation
Summary
During the May 29 special meeting the chair, Bernard Payne, asked whether Warrant Article 1 (playground installation) should be transmitted to the state legislative delegation as a formal petition to the General Court and whether documentation or signatures were required; the transcript records discussion but not a final determination.
Chair Bernard Payne asked the Select Board whether Warrant Article 1 — a petition regarding playground installation — should be transmitted to the town’s state legislative delegation as a formal petition to the General Court and whether both related items were included in the transmission.
"Here's the playground installation of the well... Are we including the both? Because if I remember it, it was an overwhelming both, in support," Payne asked, seeking clarification about the article and any paperwork required for transmission.
A staff member advised on procedural details and recording; Payne said he wanted the transmission documented and suggested the board would proceed with transmitting the article in the form presented, though the transcript does not record a formal motion, signature, or vote to complete that transmission.
No vote or official outcome appeared in the transcript excerpt. The Select Board proceeded to other agenda items after acknowledging the procedural questions and public comments.
