Thank you to the town election officials who had been working for months to prepare for yesterday’s election day and ensure its smooth functioning for local voters.
Note that ballot questions 5 and 7 are still undecided at this hour, and local voting on those questions reflects that close call.
Question 5 would change the tax refund system and aligne it more to revenue.
Question 7 would compel cities and towns to adopt loosened zoning rules to allow for more starter home building.
