vote, I’ll go through each article in the warrant, give a brief description,<br />
calling your attention to the recommendation if it’s different than what’s<br />
written in the article. If you’d like to change what’s written in the<br />
recommendation, just stand up and yell, “Hold”; we’ll hold the article.<br />
I’ll run through the entire warrant twice and then I’ll take a<br />
motion from the Finance Committee Chairman to approve all articles that<br />
were not held as recommended as the <strong>of</strong>ficial business <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Town</strong><br />
Meeting. And then we’ll go back to Article 1 and take up each article that<br />

committee reports is a hold.<br />
