Letter: Reject Article 41

Letter to the EditorPrint Story | Email Story

To the Editor:

Town meeting should reject Article 41 because sexual orientation, color of skin, health and wellness, gender, environmental issues and changes in the meaning of English words (including the word rainbow) are not well-represented by a flag in any community.

Work in the community to make the American flag ensure inclusivity, support, a sense of belonging, respect for others and acceptance among human beings who have the right to live with dignity.

If this flag is added to the three now recognized we could ask: Where does it end? The American flag represents the hope we all have for our community.

Letter: Old Town Garage Site Should Host Farmers Market

Letter to the Editor

To the Editor:

The best use for the old Town Garage site is for relocating the Farmer's Market and possibly permitting food trucks as well as an extension of Linear Park. This use would greatly benefit the Water Street shopping district, both for merchants and the town as a whole. The Select Board should rescind its vote and make this happen.

Think about it.

This would also hold the lot in reserve for potential future uses.
