Lexington held a virtual town meeting in 2020 after town leadership decided in early March to pursue a remote meeting format due to COVID-19 restrictions. The town worked with legal counsel to secure state legislation (S2673) to confirm the legality of remote town meetings, which passed with retroactive language validating actions taken during the emergency declaration. To ensure the meeting's validity, Lexington prepared multiple contingencies including a special town meeting article and a court motion for injunctive relief, while selecting Zoom Webinar as the video platform and implementing an online voting system.
