An Open Letter to the Select Board

Dear Select Board Members,

Upon reviewing the Open Meeting Law Guidelines, I see on page 19 under Disabled Access: “All open meetings of governmental bodies must be accessible to persons with disabilities.” Meeting locations must be accessible by a wheelchair, without the need for special assistance. If the town hall does not have such space, another location which meets accessibility requirements must be found.

In this case I am sure that all remedies will be looked at so that we can bring our town hall up to the standards needed and we can bring our voting back to the town hall also. This will remedy any concerns about voting at the school and putting our children at risk.

Thank you for your attention to this matter,

Karen Sullivan
