Qualified electors are those residents of the
Town of Charlestown who are registered and qualified to vote in all
general, primary or special elections of the town, and to vote at
the Budget Public Hearing/ Financial Referendum.
[Amended 11-8-1988; ratified by Town Council 2-10-1992]
All records and accounts of every office, department
or agency of the town shall be open to any citizen, any representative
of a citizens' organization or any representative of the press at
all reasonable times and under reasonable regulations established
by the Administrator. Excluded from this provision are all records
and documents, the disclosure of which would tend to defeat the lawful
purpose which they are intended to accomplish. Also excluded are all
personnel and medical files and any similar files, the disclosure
of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal
privacy.
The use in this Charter of personal pronouns
of the masculine gender is intended to include both the masculine
and feminine gender.
