Override Election Approved

On Monday night, Beverly’s City Council voted to place the override question on the ballot.

The YES! FOR BEVERLY group will hold an organizational meeting this coming Sunday night, April 13, at 7:30 pm at the First Baptist Church gym, 221 Cabot Street, Beverly.

This is a meeting for people who are willing to work to make the override a reality. YES! FOR BEVERLY urges you to attend and to invite anyone you know who is willing to pitch in to make sure a Prop. 2½ override is approved.

Visit the YES! FOR BEVERLY web site for more details, or contact Joan Sullivan at info@yesforbeverly.org to volunteer.

I cannot attend the meetings, but I am willing to help. Please contact me at ideaguys@comcast.net. (The volunteer link didn't seem to work).
Also, can you please tell me if the override vote by the public needs a simple majority to pass?
Thank you for all your work.

You should contact YES! FOR BEVERLY directly. The Volunteer Link now goes directly to their website.

I believe it is a simple majority.

Thanks for helping.
