The Essex Selectboard has hosted two facilitated, public forums last week to hear from residents throughout the entire community about how the Town of Essex can prepare for the Village of Essex Junction's coming separation vote and subsequent Vermont Legislative decision on the creation of an independent City of Essex Junction.
The third and final forum will be a hybrid meeting with options to participate:
- In-person at the Town Office, 81 Main Street, Essex Junction. A mask is required, please.
- Join online via Microsoft Teams with the meeting link: https://teams.microsoft.com/dl/launcher/launcher.html?url=%2F_%23%2Fl%2Fmeetup-join%2F19%3Am[...]rue
- Join by calling (802) 377-3784, conference ID: 484 228 226#
The forums focus on the interim period of the Village's effort, better described as the time between now and when the Vermont Legislature makes a decision on whether or not to approve the Village becoming an independent city (assuming Village voters vote in favor of separating from the Town of Essex).
