On the Campaign Trail
Maureen met with the State Representatives Barrows, Philips and Scanlon to gain an understanding on the relationship between the Select Board and the Legislature. Senator Feeney explained the relationship between his office and the Select Board.
In addition, Maureen has spoken with the numerous Department Heads and Town employees to learn more about their operations and how the budget crisis affects them.
Being well versed in the responsibilities of the Select Board and current operations of the Town will help Maureen in developing policies for the Town.
I am thankful to the folks at Beans & Seeds Cafe for allowing me to hold my weekly listening sessions there. Please support this great shop. Check out their menu: Beans & Seeds Cafe (beansandseedscafe.com)
I loved that residents came out to talk to me, express their concerns, likes and dislikes. I liked that they asked the tough questions. Everyone was welcome to share their their opinions. We had serious discussions as well as some great humorous stories. It was wonderful to get to meet everyone.
On Tuesday, May 2nd, I will be holding my final Listening Session at Honey Dew on Copeland Street from 6pm - 7pm. If you want to set up an individual time to meet or chat, please email me at maureenrdoherty@gmail.com.
If I am elected, I will look to ways that I can engage with the community. If you have ideas, please share them with me.
Thank you all for your support.
