2025 Warrant Review

2025 Warrant Review

2025 Warrant Review available for viewing

In order to engage voters early in the Annual Town Meeting legislative process, the LWV Hingham hosts an annual public review of the content of the Annual Town Meeting Warrant. This year, the LWVH partnered with the Linden Ponds Political Interest Committee who hosted the event at Linden Ponds.  

The presentation provides citizens the opportunity to review Articles and understand the issues before receiving the warrant in the mail. 

The LWV Hingham supports the principle that democratic government depends upon informed and active participation of its citizens. This requires that governmental bodies protect the citizen's right to know by giving adequate notice of proposed actions and making public records accessible. In 2011, Hingham voters voted to have the Annual Town Meeting Warrant made available to the public 10 days after the January 20 deadline for article submission, as stated in the Town's bylaws.
