Sutton Massachusetts Town Meeting
If you've never lived in a location that has town meetings, you're in for a treat. Instead of wondering just what your government is doing with your money, you can actually stand up, be heard, and vote on what happens! Every bylaw change needs to be approved by the community here. If you don't want to see the rules changed, you simply show up at the town meeting and make your point known. Town meetings are held every spring and fall in Sutton MA. Make sure you attend! I list highlights of recent meetings here. 2010 Oct 18 2010 Sutton Massachusetts Town Meeting The two main issues at this meeting involved the old Blue Jay Restaurant's land, and how you could be fined if you touched a tree along the road in front of your property. 2009 Oct 19 2009 Sutton Massachusetts Town Meeting The Oct town meeting was about the town spending about $300,000 to keep the 314 acres of Whittier farm as agricultural land. 2007 Feb 27 2007 Sutton Massachusetts Town Meeting May 15 2007 Sutton Massachusetts Town Meeting Both the Feb and May 2007 town meetings were primarily about purchasing the Shaw property - 132.5 acres for $4.5 million dollars.
