Southbury considers gender neutral titles among other Charter revisions

There are four question on the ballot in Southbury.  One asks if the revised Charter should be approved.  The remaining three question are about specific changes. 

The next question is about runners up.  If the change is passed, the votes cast for a candidate running for First Selectman will not count as votes for a seat on the Board of Selectmen. 

Question three would increase the term for the Board of Selectmen from two years to four years, and stagger the terms.  If approved, the First Selectman and the two top vote getters would be elected for four years and the remaining three Selectmen would be elected for two years. 

The last question changes the titles of the First Selectman, Board of Selectmen and Selectmen, to First Selectperson, Select Board, and Selectperson.
