Town Meeting:How to Prepare a Motion for Town Meeting

The draft of an article sponsor's motion should be submitted to Town Counsel well in advance of the first deliberative session of Town Meeting so that it can be reviewed for wording and scope by Town Counsel and the Moderator. The final version of the motion will be printed by the Selectmen's Office for distribution to Town Meeting Members.

TODO: Clarify that these suggestions are for Town-sponsored articles, and not necessarily for citizen's articles.
