The Committee shall not meet or conduct business without the
presence of a quorum. A majority of the members of the Committee shall
constitute a quorum. The Committee shall approve its actions by majority
vote of those members then present.
This Bylaw may be amended from time to time by a majority vote
of Town Meeting, provided that no such amendment may cause this Bylaw
to be in legal conflict with the Community Preservation Act.
In case any section, paragraph or other part of this Bylaw shall
be for any reason declared invalid, unlawful or unconstitutional by
any court of competent jurisdiction, every other section, paragraph
and part hereof shall continue in full force and effect insofar as
lawfully feasible.
This Article shall take effect immediately upon vote of the Town enacting the CPA and approval of the Attorney General of the Commonwealth and due publication as required by applicable law. Election of those members who are to be elected shall occur at the next Town election subsequent to the vote of the Town enacting the CPA. The individual with the highest vote tally shall be elected to the three year term, the second highest to the two year term and the third highest to the one year term. After the initial election, all at large members shall serve terms of three years each. Within 30 days of approval, each of the authorities designated in §
7-29 shall after such approval, make its designation known to the Board of Selectmen in writing, deemed a lawful and sufficient designation.
