We would like also t recog i e with <br />appreciation the countless hours of effort expended by <br />town government and school system staff and citizen <br />volunteers i moving this project forward for the benefit <br />of our children and the town as a whole. <br />t the same time, we remain deeply troubled by the <br />question of the project site. <br />The High School Building Committee, established last <br />May, has informed us that it must make its site selection <br />on November 9. The Committee's recommendation endation will be <br />reviewed by the Sel ct en on November 15, and a warrant <br />on the entire project prepared for a town meeting on <br />December 4. As we understand it, town voters will not <br />be asked to choose between two proposed sites; rather, <br />they will vote on one site only, as pant of the project <br />5 <br />package proposal, <br />This Flakes the question of site selection immediate, <br />urgent, and crucial.b <br />We do not doubt that the citizen volunteers on the <br />High School Building Committee have worked with diligence <br />and all possible speed to meet the deadlines iai'd down by <br />the Selectmen. <br />
