LEVERETT Voters at Annual Town Meeting on Saturday approved every article on the warrant as read, with the exception of the final article on a resolution concerning Native Americans, which was withdrawn by the petitioner.
The article aimed to acknowledge that the land Leverett occupies was taken from the Nonotuck and Pocumtuck tribes. However, it was withdrawn by petitioner Jim Perkins after explaining that he would like to revisit the resolution to develop one that is in keeping with the wishes of tribal people in the area.
