Members of the Charter Study Committee gave an update to the Select Board at the Jan. 25 meeting, reviewing recommendations and revisions being discussed for the modernized Town Charter.  Committee Chair Brian Giovanoni spoke about some of the debates being had among committee members at recent meetings.

We did our research,” said Paula Fay, Committee member.
