Great idea. Very thoughtful of y’all to offer this.
And another chance to thank David Olson for years of dedicated service to our city.
What Paul said. It will be an honor to stand (or Zoom) next to David Olson and fun seeing if I can get a word in edgewise next to Ted Hess-Mahan. And being with Bridget Ray-Canada makes this perfect.
all the speakers will need to have their favorite flags visible in their Zoom background.
@Greg, uh, I will take that as a compliment, Because, you know, of course.
Hopefully, a new crop of candidates will come forward. We need a clean sweep of the School Committee.
It will also be good to see some new faces on the City Council.
