RTM Questions, Postpones Handover of 35 Leroy Ave to School District
|
In an overwhelming vote of 48 to 14, with two abstentions, the Representative Town Meeting postponed considering whether or not the “care, custody and control” of the former library building at 35 Leroy Ave. should be handed over to the school district. Instead of approving a resolution to give Darien Public Schools control over the building it is already using as its headquarters, the RTM voted to postpone the vote until its first regular meeting of 2016. ______________
UPDATE, 9:54 a.m., Wednesday: Darien TV79 has now posted this recording of the meeting online. ______________
Two other RTM meetings, in November and December, are scheduled exclusively for organizing the body (including committee assignments and election of a moderator and other officers) in November, after this year’s elections, and for State of the Town speeches in December.
