Town Meeting: After Chapter Four
Although we certainly want to continue holding the accused accountable for their crimes, the death of Bob Sheldon cannot go ignored.
Rather than speculating and drawing conclusions, we need to talk about this tragedy as a town and decide—what do we need to do to ensure that we handle this situation in the best way possible.Slide5
Town Meeting: After Chapter Four
The mayor will run this meeting, and try to decide what is the best course of action
The mayor should ask the opinion of each citizen of the town, being conscious that Bob’s parents, Cherry, Randy, and several others have been emotionally devastated by this event
By the end of the meeting, we should have a plan of what to do, including when, how, and why we will be implementing each part of this planSlide6
