Thank you to the parents who attended the most recent Town Deliberative session. Below are some facts related to the Warrant Article. The ASC board supports this Article and we ask our members to become educated on this issue but more importantly, come out and vote on 3/8/2011.
Article 27 is seeking to MOVE $390,000 from the Land Use Change (LUCT) Fund to the Recreation Asset Acquisition fund so that we can move quickly to replace Cemetery Fields. The LUCT fund was established by the voters in 2001 (Article 12), and was passed at a 2-1 margin. Article 12 very clearly stated that ½ of the money was intended for Conservation land purchase (which has already happened) and ½ of the money was intended for Recreation land purchase (which is now being proposed).
Essentially this article does three main things:
2. Will be used to replace Cemetery Fields
3. There is no Tax Increase
The website links below will take you to a couple of sites that will allow for an exchange of information. The first is a Facebook page. If you are a Facebook user, please go in and "like" this page so that we can show a strong support. Also, please actively participate…ask your questions. We are certainly not asking any of you to go blindly and say "yes" for something unless you understand it. Here is the page:
The second is a website put together for the same reasons:
Please take the time to review…and help us get the word out. What we need from each of you is for you to send this on to four of your friends who are not related to soccer…and for them to send it to four of their friends, etc. We need this thing to take off so that we can have great field and playground space in our town!
Thank You
ASC Board of Directors
