Manchester Town Clerk Notes on Sept town meeting zoning

The first revision of the checklist for the Sept 8 primary and special town meeting shows major changes since March. The Board of Civil Authority added about 40 legal voters and challenged over 60 others. challenged individuals may defend their residence status by responding to a letter, otherwise they will be removed at the Sept 3 board meeting. By law the checklist remains open until noon Sept 5. All eligible voters should confirm their names are listed at the Post Office and Town Clerk office. further information is available at the Town Clerk office. Voters are urged to read the zoning ordinances before casting ballots on Sept 8, noting the simple, readable structure and potential state intervention if towns fail to decide.
