SUMMARY:'Act Locally: Making a difference in Natick government' online forum set for Nov. 19
DESCRIPTION:“Act Locally: Making a difference in Natick government” is an online event for Natick residents interested in learning about local government\, or how to volunteer. It will be held on Tuesday\, Nov. 19 at 7pm on Zoom.  \nThe event is organized by Yes for Natick\, “a political action committee with a mission to share information about Natick’s government and elections and\, at times\, to make political endorsements and recommendations.” \nYes for Natick’s Josh Ostroff tells us that the goal for the program “is consistent with the YFN mission: better informed and engaged residents. We support good citizenship. And it’s not connected to any particular policy goal or other initiative and there is no connection to the charter commission effort.  There are several vacancies on committees\, but also many uncontested seats at Town Meeting. More people informed and involved = more representative government. In theory!” \nBased on sign-ups so far\, Ostroff says those planning to attend have expressed an interest in everything from generally how to get involved in town government to more specific topics such as the environment\, how to advocate effectively\, and how to balance work/family/volunteer service. \nThe event complements other recent efforts in town\, such as the Natick 101 series\, to encourage more community participation in government. \nThe event will feature panelists: \n\nMatt Gardner\, Conservation Commission\nJulie McDonough\, School Committee\nMaria McMorran\, Net Zero Committee\nGanesh Ramachandran\, Affordable Housing Trust\nLinda Wollschlager\, Select Board and Town Meeting member\, former Finance Committee member\n\nRegistration is open. You can also submit questions to panelists at that link. \nThis event will be recorded for later viewing on Zoom and Natick Pegasus. \n\nPlease support your local news source\, Natick Report\, if you can.
