Summary of charter provisions requiring biennial to quinquennial codification of ordinances under the Town Solicitor, and procedures for charter amendments, fees handling, annual audits, oath, town property inventory, conflict of interest rules, crime convictions, and partial invalidity with protections for voters and offices.
The amended charter takes effect after voter approval and canvassing. Officials continue in office until successors are elected or appointed. First elections under the charter occur in November 1976 with a 1971 special election for Town Administrator and a three year term. Transfers of appropriations and agency changes follow, with continuance of contracts and pending actions preserved. Taxes due before enactment remain collectible. Repealed sections address emergency powers and Town Administrator qualifications and salaries.
