Town Meeting Continued to Thursday

LYNNFIELD, MA – After action was taken on six items on the agenda for Monday's fall town meeting, an attendee noticed that too many people had left.

The town charter stipulates that 175 voters must be present to vote on town meeting items. Lynnfield checks in people at the beginning of town meetings and doesn't begin until there are enough people, but people tend to leave after voting on the items that interest them.

The attendee (unnamed by a notice sent out by the town) initiated a quorum call, and revealed a lack of quorum. The meeting was adjourned, and will continue on Thursday at 7:30 p.m. in the Lynnfield Middle School auditorium at 505 Main St.

The first six items were approved.

Registered voters in Lynnfield can attend and take part in the debate, and vote on the remaining six warrant articles on Thursday, according to an alert from the town.

The full warrant can be found here.
