Town Manager Norman Khumalo would like to share the warrant article that will be up for consideration at the upcoming Special Town Meeting.

Special Town Meeting will be held Thursday, Aug. 18 beginning at 7 p.m. at the Hopkinton High School Field House/Athletic Center, 90 Hayden Rowe St.

The Select Board voted Tuesday, Aug. 2 to place one article on the Special Town Meeting Warrant relating to an addition to the Marathon Elementary School.

The warrant article will ask the Town whether to approve a transfer of $850,000 from the School Department Stabilization Fund for increased costs related to the Marathon School Addition project. This funding, if approved, will supplement previously approved funding for the project. A two-thirds vote at Special Town Meeting will be needed to pass the measure.

The signed warrant can be found on the Town of Hopkinton website. "Special Town Meeting is an important process by which residents voice their opinions and participate in decision making about pressing matters impacting the town," Town Manager Khumalo said.
