Officials offer more information about Town Meeting

March 20, 2024

From Assistant Town Manager Dan Pereira:

Annual Town Meeting is this Saturday, March 23, and we anticipate a very large turnout. The town is providing as much information as possible in advance to ensure a smooth experience for all.

Website

  • Please visit our Annual Town Meeting web page for up-to-date meeting information. It contains links to meeting procedures and materials, services, and background on the key articles being presented. 

Logistics

  • Voter check-in begins at 8 a.m. and Town Meeting begins at 9:30 a.m. sharp. We are opening doors earlier than originally planned to spread out the arrival window and shorten the line to check in.  
  • We have doubled the number of poll pads to move you through as quickly as possible, but we strongly encourage you to arrive early, just in case.
    • You will be given a voter card at check in. You must keep this card with you at all times as you will not be permitted to vote without this card.
  • We expect parking on the Ballfield Road campus to be over capacity, so please carpool, arrive early, or walk!  If you arrive and the campus has been closed to more cars, you will be directed to park in nearby parking areas such as Town Hall.
  • We will have three seating areas this year: the Brooks Auditorium, the Reed Gym and the school learning commons. The auditorium and Reed Gym/Field house are expected to be very full, so we have added the school learning commons to facilitate more socially distanced viewing. All three spaces will be fully participatory and moderated.
  • We have maps detailing campus parking and the building entrance.
  • We are planning for a half-hour food break at some point in the early afternoon. Coffee and treats will be served by the Lincoln Girl Scouts, but a full lunch will not be served. We have a very busy day and want to keep the meeting moving, so please plan accordingly.

Services

  • We have reserved parking closest to the entrance for handicap and mobility-impaired residents. 
  • We provide the option for fully interactive, socially distanced seating in the Lincoln School Learning Commons.
  • Childcare is being provided by LEAP (Lincoln Extended-day Activity Program), click here to sign up.
  • Assisted listening devices are available — just approach AV personnel in any room and they will assist you.

    I am hearing impaired in spite of wearing hearing aids. Please advise me 1) wher to find the assisted listening devices and 2) the very best place/s to sit in order that I may hear both the speakers AND the questions.
    Many many thanks.
