The following Article was discussed at the Annual Town Meeting of April 27, 2009. While the article did not pass, the Youth Commission will not have members appointed by the Board of Selectmen.
ARTICLE 15: Abolish Youth Commission
To see if the Town will vote to revoke the acceptance of Chapter 40, Section 8E relative to the establishment of a youth commission, as originally voted under Article 34 of the March 20, 1972 Annual Town Meeting, or to take any other action relative thereto.
This article would legally abolish the Youth Commission by revoking the Town’s acceptance of the state law that allowed the Town to establish the Commission. The Commission has already been disbanded and its functions assigned to other Town bodies.
