BREAKING: Court Knocks Down Conflict of Interest Articles

Both Articles 18 and 19 approved by voters in March were ruled invalid this morning.

The town received word this morning from Rockingham Superior Court that both conflict of interest articles approved by voters at Town Meeting in March have been ruled invalid, according to Town Administrator Dave Sullivan.

In a message to Windham Patch, Sullivan said that it was determined that both articles infringed upon constitutional rights.

Both articles were petitions drafted by Windham resident Marc Sneider and others.
