Description

From Your Arlington: Last Updated: 02 December 2020 Written by Bob Sprague The 2020 Special Town Meeting concluded Wednesday, Dec. 2, with session five, as the meeting voted to support a motion that expects to lead to a request to the Select Board to return the Black Lives Matter banner to Town Hall. The vote for the amended article was 166-34-38. The number of abstentions could reflect some members' objections to a lack of an extended discussion about the issue, but Moderator John Leone explained that he would allow one proponent and opponent to present and go to a vote. A full summary of all articles considered will be reported. YourArlington.com has provided news and opinion about Arlington, Mass., since 2006.
