Another Town Meeting is in the books! Great to see some new features (consent agenda, visible timer) in place to help things run smoothly. And so proud to see a FANTASTIC turnout with no quorum issues! We should all be proud of that! Thank you @HopkintonMA! 🇺🇸🗳️ #HOPATM23

Welcome back from what I imagine was a restful summer of lesson planning. We have a full day of important information that I'll be reading to you and no time to waste, which is why we'll spend the first hour with a rock-paper-scissors tournament.

@KickinRead Thank you! I did not know that! I see that some towns hand out devices for voting. Definitely interesting!

I attended all three nights of #HOPATM22 from beginning to end and have some thoughts to share. 🧵

#HOPATM22 Motion to dissolve Town Meeting. Passed.

[Janice Barry @JaniceLPBarry]

@HopkintonMA Thank you! I hope we can explore ways to get more people to attend. Happy to help! 😊

[Janice Barry @JaniceLPBarry]

@lchuss Thanks, Linda! I think a survey from the town is a great place to start. We need to learn why people are not going as well as actively recruit residents to attend.
