The following letter was sent to the members of the Newfane Select Board:
At Mondayâs meeting (Dec. 7), I outlined three options for holding Town Meeting safely on March 2, 2021.
1. We can hold the budget and policy portion of our annual town meeting from the floor as usual. However, according to the Vermont League of Cities and Towns, we would have to comply with mandatory health and safety requirements from the CDC, Vermont Department of Health, the Agency of Commerce and Community Development, and the Secretary of Stateâs office. In addition to the mandatory wearing of masks, current public safety guidelines allow a maximum of 75 people indoors. Even with our declining attendance at town meeting in recent years, we have had more than 75 turn out.
