Committee Changes:
It was announced that John Dumont is finishing off his term this March. We thank John for his incredible commitment and dedication to this committee. He has gone above and beyond as member and chair of this committee and he will be truly missed! We will continue to count on his expert advice in the future! Thanks so much John! Ted Julian will be running for John’s empty seat in the next election, unopposed.
Town Meeting will be on March 25th and we are encouraged to attend.
