The Moore Free Library will host a Pre-Town Meeting and Candidate's Night on Monday, February 24th.
The Pre-Town Meeting is intended to provide Newfane residents an opportunity to better understand the town report and budget and to ask questions about articles being voted upon in a less formal setting than is the case at Town Meeting (Tuesday, March 3rd at Union Hall).
From 6:30 - 7:00 PM, Newfaners will have a chance to meet the candidates running in the local election. All candidates for elected office in the town have been invited. None of these positions is contested (there is only one candidate for each position).
At 7:00 PM, Melissa Brown (Treasurer) and Deborah Lee Luskin (Moderator) will discuss the questions on the ballot (articles), the budget, and the 2019 Town Report. The format and flow of Town Meeting and the procedure for asking questions or making motions will also be discussed.
This is an opportunity to ask questions and gain understanding of the budget, report, and town governance. All residents of the town of Newfane (yes, this includes Williamsville, South Newfane, and Brookside) are welcome to attend.
Please bring your town report with you. There will be a few extra on hand for those who haven't received it.
