Winchester Beat announced a new program this week called Winchester Perspectives.
The first episode focuses on the proposed override and the State of the Town (SOTT) process, featuring a conversation with SOTT members Paras Bhayani, Stefanie Mnayarji, and Derek Ross.
“The idea is to help residents make an informed vote,” said Tara Hughes.
“People on all sides of the issue might be surprised at some of what they hear,” added Jennifer Haefeli.
