Select Board sets new Fall Special Town Meeting date

MIDDLEBORO – The Middleboro Select Board pushed the Fall Special Town Meeting back to Monday, Nov. 9 during its Sept. 28 meeting at the request of Interim Town Manager Robert Nunes.

During a fiscal status update at the Sept. 21 Select Board meeting, Nunes said that there were new articles that had to be added to the warrant. He thought that there needed to be more time so the articles could be drafted correctly. He said that it was not worth rushing to meet an arbitrary deadline.

Select Board Vice Chair Thomas White echoed that sentiment at the Sept. 28 meeting.

“We need to get it right,” White said.

The Fall Special Town Meeting will still take place at Middleborough High School auditorium, 71 E. Grove St.
