When Is A Meeting Not Town Meeting
A special town meeting planned for Monday night devolved into a comedy of errors as quorum issues stalled the start. The Board of Selectmen arrived late at 8 15, and by 8 30 there were still not enough members to meet a quorum. Despite this, the moderator and officials claimed no quorum was necessary to transfer funds, and the meeting adjourned.
