Representative Town Meeting gave almost unanimous (one nay) support to the idea of establishing a body that will study the most difficult issues we face in Brattleboro. Now people are needed who can set up this body. Give it specific purpose, rules, and whatever else it needs to get started. There are a lot of questions about how such an endeavor should be approached. One of the qualities one should bring is the ability to be affirmative and positive in a culture where helplessness and hopelessness is creeping into its bones. It is a good place for those ready to fight the good fight.
I’ve submitted my name to prime the pump.
This first phase must be finished by February but with luck much sooner. It should be an enjoyable and rewarding exercise. Please contact the Town Moderator, Lawrin Crispe, at crispe@sover.net
