An Act relative to town meeting accessibility
This bill requires towns to make their town meetings accessible both in person and remotely via video conferencing. It allows up to 15 town meeting members to participate remotely using a video platform, with their votes recorded electronically. The law applies directly to all town meeting members and requires towns to provide this option using a standard internet-connected device. The key provision ensures remote attendees can be recognized by the moderator and have their votes counted through the platform. This is a procedural change to meeting accessibility rules, not a substantive policy.
