SPEAK UP HAMILTON! (www.speakuphamilton.org) is dedicated to the proposition that town government belongs to the citizens, and that we all need to know and understand town issues and to make our voices heard. The OFFICIAL TOWN WEB SITE (www.hamiltonma.gov) lists board and committee schedules and agendas, records the minutes of meetings and hearings, and publishes warrant articles, proposed bylaws, and subjective opinions of Hamilton officials. SPEAK UP HAMILTON! is an open forum for the presentation and discussion of other positions, opinions and ideas. Its purpose is to inform citizens of all sides of the important issues and to encourage their participation in their government. We include links not as endorsements, but as sources of information. The Hamilton Alliance for Smart Growth and Sustainable Community is concerned with responsible land planning and issues of town government.
