Town Meeting Parking Information-LOCATION FARMINGTON RIVER REGIONAL SCHOOL-555 NORTH MAIN RD There will be no parking along route 8.  Parking will be at the school and at the Otis highway garage.  There will be a shuttle service from the highway garage to the school starting at 6:15pm and ending promptly at 7 pm. Please carpool with a friend or neighbor if you can.  Those carpooling can drop off your car load of voters at the front entrance to the school and then park at the highway garage. Those carpooling can leave cars at the town hall too, but keep in mind the shuttle service is only from the highway department to the school. Please plan to come early so we can start on time. Voters can start checking in at 6pm. When the meeting is over and for your safety, we would prefer you not walk on Route 8 back to the highway garage.  The bus shuttles will be running again or you can carpool down. If you decide you can't wait for a shuttle and decide to walk, please grab a glow stick from the check-in table for your safety. 

IT'S GOING TO BE HOT FOR TOWN MEETING- Don't let the heat discourage you. Town meeting will go on as planned!  Be prepared by dressing appropriately  and bring a water bottle.  There is a water bottle refilling station in the hallway of the school.
