AMEND GENERAL BYLAW ARTICLE IV ANNUAL TOWN MEETING - RECONSIDERATION

Article 28 To see if the Town will vote to amend General Bylaw Article IV by deleting the

language in Section 6 in its entirety and inserting the following language in its place:



Section 6 Reconsideration

If an article of the warrant has once been acted upon and disposed of, a motion to return to the
article may be made at any time, if the Moderator determines that the person offering the
motion discloses significant new factual information to the Town meeting concerning said
article, which existed but had not been disclosed or made available to the meeting when the
motion under that article was debated, and the Moderator thereupon explains why such
information satisfies the foregoing criteria. If the moderator deems a reconsideration request
does not meet the requirements but the body feels differently, then the proponent of the
reconsideration request can ask for a vote of the town meeting members and if this vote passed
by a simple majority that the motion to reconsider will proceed provided, however, that debate
and action on said motion shall be deferred until all financial articles are concluded and
immediately prior to taking up the question of the Annual Budget budget ball is added to the
lottery system. A two-thirds vote shall be required for approval of a motion to reconsider an
article.
Or take any other action related thereto.
