The committee explained that the proposed changes would clarify Town Meeting terms, align the charter with current Organizational Town Meeting procedures, remove unused expense reimbursement language, and clarify committee service limits and appointments. The committee also scheduled its April meeting to focus on defining quorum consistently across boards and committees.
