To the editor:
There is no better time than now. Be part of Greensboro’s solutions. Greensboro residents have a week left to raise their batons and help lead the community into the future. Petitions need to be handed into the town clerk’s office by January 26 and you only need seven signatures on the petition. Forms are on the town website and can be picked up at the Greensboro Town Offices.
New voices are needed as part of our leadership teams. Diverse skills and ideas with new perspectives will help affect positive steps forward. If you want to see changes in town the best way to do so is to get involved. There are numerous seats coming up for election at this year’s town meeting that will be voted on by Australian Ballot. Everyone has time and family commitments but working with others the task can be less onerous and rewarding. Seats up for election include the three year town clerk position, town moderator, a two- and three-year term on the select board, delinquent tax collector, cemetery commissioner, and two three year terms on the thriving Greensboro Free Library Board. The Greensboro community is invited to be part of the change moving us into the twenty-first century.
Important dates to remember include: January 26, deadline for petitions to be handed in to the town offices; January 28, an information session to find out more about the candidates who are running and get answers to Australian Ballot procedures; February 10, request that an Australian Ballot be mailed (20 days prior to town meeting) if not attending in person.
The Greensboro community prides itself on having strong volunteers, rich talents, compassion for our neighbors and a strong sense of belonging. Step up today and become part of our town’s future.
