Court to examine voter signatures in Jones Library project "> Published: 7/21/2021 6:53:30 PM NORTHAMPTON — A Hampshire Superior Court judge will examine signatures on a voter veto petition to bring the Jones Library expansion and renovation project to a townwide referendum vote on Nov. 2. In a memorandum of decision and order in the case brought against the town’s Board of Registrars by 40 voters, most of whom had their signatures rejected when reviewed by the town clerk’s office last spring, Judge Richard J. Carey wrote that “the clerk shall schedule an in-person evidentiary hearing” Aug. 23 starting at 10 a.m. But Carey also left the door open for the affected voters to make an appeal to the secretary of state with their motion for summary judgment, and his order, “so that the secretary may determine whether he wishes to intervene in this matter.”
