Caucus Meetings
All 15 precincts hold a caucus prior to each town meeting in order to hear presentations regarding articles on the warrant. Sometimes public comment is allowed. This is up to the discretion of the Precinct Chair. The caucuses will be listed on the Town web-site as they are scheduled along with the agenda. You can find the meeting schedule on the home page in the same manner as all other meetings, looking for your precinct’s caucus meetings.
