The Charter Review Committee has arranged for multiple public information sessions to discuss the committee's proposal to replace Town Meeting with an elected, town council and to replace a part-time board of selectman and town administrator with an elected, full-time mayor.

The proposal will be voted on at Town Meeting and, if passed, will be put before voters on a town-wide ballot for approval.

This Saturday, March 13, at 1 p.m. in the Town Hall Auditorium, the committee will present a short slideshow comparing the existing town government with the proposed one. You are invited to watch, listen, ask questions, suggest refinements, and express concerns and hopes.

A Wareham cable TV program is in the works, scheduled to air later in March, in which those who cannot attend a meeting can call in with questions, suggestions, and concerns.

In addition, two other public meetings are being planned, at least one of which will be held on a Wednesday or Thursday evening at 7 p.m. to accommodate those citizens who have not been able to attend the Saturday events.

Please keep watching this newspaper and WCTV cable stations, Channel 9 or Channel 29, for updates on the events' specific dates and times.
