You have to evoke a sense of responsibility in the townspeople to participate in the government. But the bottom line is that it's an individual choice. An open town meeting is more time-consuming than other types of government we conduct, but I don't think it's too much to ask residents in towns that still have a town meeting to participate. -Michael Starn

It's a level of commitment municipalities feel isn't strong enough when it's in statute.

I'm finding that a lot of the smaller towns are really struggling to stay within their limits.
