No registered elector of the Town shall be denied admission or the right to vote in the Town Meeting. The Town Clerk and his or her deputies shall deny admission to the Town Meeting to all persons who are not registered electors of the Town; provided, however, that any member of the working press, any Town staff needed to hold the meeting, and any person certified by the Clerk as an observer shall be admitted, but shall be prohibited from voting. The Town Clerk shall take minutes of each Town Meeting.

No action may be taken at a Town Meeting unless the Town Clerk determines that a quorum is present at the time of each vote. A Town Meeting quorum shall be registered electors equal in number to at least one-third (1/3) of the number of electors voting in the last regular municipal election. The Moderator shall preside according to reasonable parliamentary procedure, denying no person or viewpoint the right to be heard, and preventing intemperate or obstructive conduct. The Moderator shall publicly declare the result of each vote.

The Town Meeting may, at the discretion of the Moderator, take an action by voice vote of "yes" or "no," or by show of hands responding to "yes" or "no" vote requests, or by division of the meeting into "yes" and "no" spaces. An action shall be deemed to be taken when the number of "yes" votes exceeds the number of "no" votes on any question. (Amended 11/2/21)
