Dear Readers:

My apologies for two Cambridge Matters in one week, but I wanted to get to you a list of frequently asked questions (FAQ) to help you understand some of the issues that we are trying to correct and answers to some of the questions that we have been asked. I think that the attached will help.
I am also including below a link to a zoom training that Gene Lauer and I did for those who would gather signatures for the petitions that I sent previously and  to provide you with more information about this effort. It will include the discussion of the FAQ that is attached.
Passcode: B?^Dl7HC
If you have other questions or wish to volunteer to help, please be in touch with me.
Thanks for reading.

Cambridge Matters #22-05 – County Charter Change – Feb 10, 2022

Dear Readers:

Attached is my article on the second Charter Change Petition that deals with how the County Manager position should function. There are some significant and important changes to these two sections of the Charter as you will see in the article.
We have had the Charter Petitions printed and are in the process of training volunteers to collect the petition signatures. I will provide in my next Cambridge Matters a FAQ list of questions that people have asked concerning this effort and a link to a training that Gene Lauer and I did that will help you understand the need  for these changes and how to collect signatures that will be approved by the Election Board when we present them for approval.
Thanks for reading.

Dear Readers:

I am beginning a short series of Cambridge Matters about some proposed changes to the County Charter. I hope that they will be of interest and that you will agree with what is being proposed.

The actual petitions will be provided at a later date after I have been able to explain them to you.

We need help in collecting signatures for these petitions, so if you are willing to help and have not already offered, please be in touch with me. We need people from all parts of the County.

Thanks.

Steve
