Town Meeting is this Saturday March 27th 2008 and like every year there are a lot of issues on the Town Warrant to be addressed. The usual political fair of overrides, health care cost increases and the need for new town vehicles have been augmented this year with a couple of interesting ideas: a wind energy system bylaw and a museum bylaw. Both are fairly new proposals and for better or for worse Harvard has always been skilled at studying new ideas until quite frankly they become old ideas. So we'll see next week what happens!
We'll also be having Town Election is this Tuesday April 1st 2008. This year voters will be electing a myriad of volunteers including positions in two key/critical offices: three positions on the Board of Selectmen and two positions on the School Committee. The good news is that we have mostly capable candidates and a town full of informed voters. Check out The Harvard Hillside, The Harvard Press, and The Harvard Post for candidate profiles. Why do we have three papers you ask? Boy do I wish I knew - print advertising isn't exactly free!
