A significant and solid majority, 59%, of those participating in the referendum voting said they wanted the ordinance overturned. Concerns were raised about the hasty implementation of the ordinance, which allowed no time for small businesses and residents to adapt. Concerns were raised about cost increases to residents resulting from being forced to use less efficient landscaping equipment. Concerns were raised about residents reporting their neighbors to the police rather than allowing the police to do their job. My hope is that our elected officials will listen to many more than 2% of our citizens before implementing ordinances that impact 100% of the Town’s residents.
