Delegates To Hold Town Meetings Beginning In Resort

2/05/2010 | By The Dispatch Staff

BERLIN - As part of an ongoing effort to keep in touch with community needs, Delegates James Mathias and Norman Conway will hold town meetings through February with the goal to help them make informed decisions during the 2010 session of the Maryland General Assembly.

'The 427th Session of the General Assembly is now underway and there are many measures up for consideration such as balancing the State Budget and bills that target sexual predators,' Conway said. 'These town meetings will be an opportunity to share any concerns you may have with your delegates.'

Conway and Mathias are looking forward to hearing about issues important to the citizens of Worcester and Wicomico counties. The pair held similar town meetings at the beginning of 2009, and they both want to encourage all their constituents to attend again this year. They hope citizens will take the opportunity to share their opinions and concerns with the delegates, as well as learn what the 2010 General Assembly session will involve.

'Please come and let us know what's on your mind as we continue to work hard for you on the Eastern Shore,' Mathias said.

The following town meetings have been scheduled: Saturday, Feb. 6, 10-11:30 a.m., Ocean City Fire Headquarters; Saturday, Feb. 6, 1:30-3 p.m., Ocean Pines Library; Saturday, Feb. 13, 10-11:30 a.m., Pocomoke Volunteer Fire Department; Saturday, Feb. 13, 2-3:30    p.m., Snow Hill Library; Saturday, Feb. 20, 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m., Salisbury-Wicomico Public Library; Saturday, Feb. 20, 3-4:30 p.m.,            Town Hall of Berlin.
