Town to examine remote meeting access for residents

Belgium Town Chairman Tom Winker last month said the town should look at ways to allow residents to provide feedback at meetings from home.

He said it’s a good idea for those afraid to go out during the Covid-19 pandemic or because of bad weather.

But Winker said he would rather the town not pay for a Zoom account.

Supr. Tom Bichler and Town Clerk Ginger Murphy were to study the issue and provide an update at the Feb. 1 meeting.
