SECTION 3.7 CONSENT CALENDAR
SECTION 3.7 CONSENT CALENDAR Before every annual town meeting the moderator, after consultation with the chairs of the Select Board and the Finance Committee, shall select from the warrant those articles which in the experience and judgment of such officers are deemed likely to be adopted without debate and cause such articles, and the motions to be made under each one of them, to be identified in a Consent Calendar included as part of the report required to be prepared by Section 2.6. At an appropriate time during the town meeting, the moderator shall announce consideration of the Consent Calendar. Upon such announcement by the moderator the chair of the Finance Committee shall forthwith move to adopt 8 the motions in the consent calendar, as a group, without debate. After seconding of the motion the moderator shall recognize any voter for the purpose of holding out any article and shall cause any article thus held out to be deleted from the motion to adopt. When all requests to hold out articles have been received, the moderator shall put the motion as modified to a vote. Adoption of the motion by unanimous vote shall constitute adoption of all of the motions contained therein. Thereafter all articles held out, or if the motion to adopt is not voted unanimously, all articles in the Consent Calendar, shall be acted upon individually as otherwise provided in town meeting procedures.
