Brookline Town Politics Update

So next week is Town Meeting.

So on Sunday a Town Meeting Member filed an amendment to the standard revisiting-the-budget article to move the Library RFID money out of the capital budget and into a reserve.

So on Monday we had a Library Trustees Meeting to discuss a response.

So on Tuesday I crafted a response, which the Trustees looked over and which we sent out as from the Trustees.

So on Wednesday I was on the phone a lot.

So on Thursday night I was out at the Old Lincoln School, the temporary Town Hall, to attend meetings of the Advisory Committee's Administration and Finance Subcommittee and the Advisory Committee, along with a few other Trustees and our Library Director.

So today, I'm exhausted. And the three nights of staying up late for Town Meeting aren't until next week.

If I have time, I'll post details later. All you need to know is that Trustees still fully support funding the RFID program, as Town Meeting voted to do back in May.
