Except for procedural matters, all subjects brought before Town Meeting shall be placed on Warrants issued by the Board of Selectmen. The Board of Selectmen shall receive all requests for inclusion on the Warrant for the Annual Town Meeting, including all citizen petitions that must be certified by the Town Clerk.

All requests to place items on the Annual Town Meeting Warrant shall be in writing, and each request for a particular subject shall be submitted as a separate petition.

Proposed articles submitted after the deadline will not be considered for inclusion in the April Annual Town Meeting Warrant.

It is recommended that Citizen Petitions contain at least 20 signatures to ensure that the required 10 can be certified for inclusion on the Annual Town Meeting Warrant.
