A nearly unanimous vote at the Special Town Meeting allowed Duxbury to settle outstanding debts from prior years. Article 2 sought $4,844.29 to pay for various maintenance and facility bills that remained unpaid from previous fiscal cycles.

Because the article involved payments for prior year expenses, it required a 9/10ths supermajority to pass. The motion comfortably cleared this threshold with 96% of voters in favor.

Motion: I move that the town appropriate $4,844.29 to pay the following unpaid bills of previous fiscal years... funding source is free cash.

Vote: Passed 96% Yes - 4% No
