Updated Dec 09, 2020;
According to Moderator Rebecca Townsend, the meeting lasted one minute.
“The meeting went as smoothly as it possibly could have gone,” she said in a statement. “There was no discussion; the votes on the motion to take no action and dissolve were unanimous.”
“People understood the need to avoid gathering, and the need to dissolve this meeting,” said Townsend, who had previously postponed the meeting several times based on concerns about the coronavirus pandemic. “I appreciate that the community placed their trust in this process. I got a couple of contacts (email, call) glad that it went as it did. I’ve not heard complaints. It was such a tough position for the town to be in, and I am glad we were able to come to a solution that preserved the peoples’ rights and safety.”
