On June 14, 1777, the Continental Congress approved the design of a national flag. 🇺🇸

Since 1916, when President Woodrow Wilson issued a presidential proclamation establishing a national Flag Day on June 14, Americans have commemorated the adoption of the Stars and Stripes in many ways–displaying the flag in the front of their homes, parades, and other patriotic observances. Prior to 1916, many localities and a few states had been celebrating the day for years. Congressional legislation designating that date as the national Flag Day was signed into law by President Harry Truman in 1949; the legislation also called upon the president to issue a Flag Day proclamation every year. 🇺🇸

WHEREAS: The Monson Select Board would like to take this opportunity to thank you very much, and to express our sincere and grateful appreciation for your dedicated forty-one years, starting on April 18, 1985, of providing invaluable expertise, foresight, and unwavering commitment to the thoughtful development and orderly growth of our community while serving on the Monson Planning Board; and,

WHEREAS: Paul is a civil engineer and lifelong Monson resident. He played a pivotal role in Monson’s logical community growth with the creation of a long-term Master Plan for the town. His vast amount of knowledge aided future development, managed land subdivision, and reviewed development proposals as part of the Board where he was responsible for site plan reviews, and issuing special permits for commercial and residential developments to ensure safe, compliant development with his incredible skills, combined with a deep devotion to our community that caused him to act repeatedly and selflessly in the town’s best interests. These actions have been unbelievably beneficial to the town of Monson, and greatly appreciated over the numerous years that he has been involved with our community, ensuring that Monson remains a vibrant place to live and work; and

WHEREAS: Paul’s dedication to balancing economic development with environmental stewardship and community character has left a lasting positive legacy on our landscape; and

NOW, THEREFORE: The Monson Select Board hereby are proclaiming this date, June 30, 2026, as

Question 2 on Local Ballot

The Town would like to issue a correction for our previous post, which stated that it was mandatory for the Board to include the nonbinding citizen's petition on the ballot. After consultation with Town Counsel, the Town would like to state that placing this question on the ballot was a discretionary action taken by the Board. The Board chose to approve this question and place it on the ballot because it was requested by a citizen and we had no concerns with this information being gathered by the petitioning residents.

Moreover, this question is not binding and is simply used to gather public opinion data from the residents. Voting on this question will not impact the number of seats on the Board, but may advise the Town and other residents on the community's desire to have a larger Select Board.
