 ** Please note that Articles 8, 9 and 10 number had to be changed to comply with State Law that a BOND warrant must come directly after zoning questions.  We regret any inconvenience this may have caused during a final DRA and Legal review of the warrant prior to printing this week.  Of significance is that the Fire Station warrant was renumbered from #10 to #8.
