We invite
participants to share their thoughts on questions such as the
following:
·
What aspects of
Amherst's current approach to government do you like?
·
What aspects do you
think could be improved?
·
What do you see as key
challenges facing Amherst?
·
How can we improve our
Town government’s ability to meet those challenges?
·
Any other thoughts or
feedback you would like to provide?
Residents will be
able to provide input verbally (2 minute limit each) and/or in
writing at the event. Residents can also provide their
answers to the questions above using the Public Input Form
link on the Charter Commission webpage (see below).
The work of the
Charter Commission can be followed online at www.amherstma.gov (look for “Charter
Commission” on the “Boards and Committees” page).
Feedback is also
welcome via email at charter@amherstma.gov. Other
opportunities for input from residents, staff, and other
