we experience all the time. We wait 2 or 3 weeks <br /> to get something that should have been out a week <br /> ago. That' s what we 've got right now. Give it <br /> sometime . Let I s see what the state comes back <br /> with and then you can all review it. <br /> VOTER: I cane in a little late and I may not be aware of <br /> everything that was said before I got here but <br /> I 'm under the impression that tonight you can <br /> not give a final answer regarding this. <br /> 'CHAI MAN: That' s true.' <br /> VOTER: Now you keep saying that the final decision is <br /> left to the Selectmen. When the selectmen were <br /> putt in office, they were put in there to serve <br /> the Town* The Town being the people in the Town, <br /> and if you had the majority of a vote at the <br /> last Town Meeting, I don' t see how there can be <br /> any other way than to go the way the voters wanted <br /> you to. Th.at' s,-ypur job to serve the people in <br /> this Town. <br /> 'CHAIRMAN: I have no problem with that. <br /> SELECTMAN GARLAND: I don' t think that there is a person on this Board <br /> that has. not said that they will s i gn a document. <br /> I think that there is a feeling 'here that perhaps <br /> our word is being doubted. We have all sat here <br /> and we have all said that ' if this document is cleared <br /> y the Attorney General' s office as being proper and <br /> without error, it will be signed'. I think we have <br /> been very clear on that statement. <br /> VOTER: Yes, but you ]peep saying that the Selectmen have <br /> the 'final decision' . <br /> SELECTMAN GARLAND: You have just heard us . Now is our word to you <br /> not .good enough? <br /> VOTE : The 'voters should have the final decision. <br /> CHAIRMAN: Well I thinly we have explained it from the two sides. <br /> There is a legal side of it and the intent of Town <br /> Meeting by the motion that was voted. There was a <br /> very specific motion referring to a very specific <br /> document. That" s what we are waiting for. ' We. have <br /> to have in front of us before we take the vote. <br /> Otherwise, we don' t know ghat' i t refers to.' <br /> VOTE : So you are asking us to hang in there for 2 or <br /> weeks or whatever. <br /> SELECTMAN AR ND. We are not asking you. The Commonwealth is asking <br /> us to hold our vote in obeyance. We can not sign <br /> a blank sheet of paper which I think the 'general <br /> sense of the people here tonight is that they want <br /> us to sign something,, We 'do not have the document <br /> � - <br />
