From the organizer:

Unsure about the meaning of charter changes, petitions, initiatives, referendums, etc? Forget the FUD! Let's grab a bite and talk ballot initiatives and referendums with our neighbors and fellow Burlingtonians!

Learn about townhall democracy, Vermont's longtime tradition of grassroots decision making and what meaningful participation looks like. Awaken the hidden superpower vested in our hands and use them to fight for a better future!

In this discussion, Chittenden County Senators host a discussion on the redrawn lines for Chittenden Senate districts.

• The central Chittenden district will have three senators representing the north part of Burlington, Winooski, the southern part of Colchester and Essex Junction.

• The southeast Chittenden district will have three senators representing Burlington's 6-5 House district, South Burlington, Shelburne, Charlotte, Hinesburg, Bolton, Richmond, St. George, Williston, Jericho and Underhill.

• The north Chittenden district will be served by one Senator and include the towns of Milton, Westford and Essex Town, as well as the Franklin County town of Fairfax.

The Ad-Hoc Committee on Redistricting will be having public meetings and the public is invited to contribute their thoughts as part of this all-important process to redesign the ward structure in light of 2020 census changes.
