Town Meeting Update: Possibly Tonight, April 10

Please be alert to the possibility that the dog related Article 44 may come up tonight, April 10. If things progress as rapidly as they did last night, they may get to our proposal for a two year moratorium on off-leash bans sooner than we expected.

We have no control over when this gets presented, so we are asking everyone to tune into channel 8 or 9 (CCTV) especially at 9pm, and be ready to come to town meeting if it looks like they might get to us. Or, if you are a die hard (like my wife) you may already be planning to attend all of the meetings.

Tonight will begin with the marijuana dispensary discussion, followed by some innocuous zoning articles. If we are into those at 9pm, then we suggest you come to TM. I will also send out another email alert. We are hopeful that it will not be heard until tomorrow, but there is this distinct possibility.

And in case you question the importance of stopping the town from continuing this campaign, look at how much we have lost already and listen to this seven second clip where Delia says the solution to off-leash dogs is a dog park:
