Hancock concluded its virtual Town Meeting on Tuesday by passing all its warrant articles. This week’s drive-up ballot vote on the warrant was the final step in a process that involved two virtual meetings to discuss the warrant, with a period for submitting requests for amendments in between.

“It went really well, and I hope we never have to do it again,” reelected Select Board Chair Laurie Bryan said. Hancock will “certainly” return to regular Town Meeting structure as soon as COVID-19 concerns are under control, she said. The Select Board tried to put together an uncontroversial warrant this year, in part because residents wouldn’t be able to deliberate it face to face, she said.

“It took a lot of people power,” Bryan said, and thanked all the volunteers working inside and outside the elementary school to make sure voting went smoothly – as well as the weather, for cooperating. She also thanked Moderator Ric Haskins for devising the logistics of this year’s unusual event.
