Yet another not-to-be-missed performance of the Charlestown Planning Commission talking about their all mixed up dark sky ordinance will take place tonight at the Charlestown Town Hall at 7 PM.

The session will be in the Town Council chambers. The meeting is expected to be preserved for posterity and for your home-viewing pleasure on Clerkbase

That's not the full moon on steroids. It's our own Town Hall parking lot.
Time for the town to practice what it preaches.

After that, it will be up to the Town Council at its March 12 meeting to decide what to do with it.
