Answer:

The answer is D

Step-by-step explanation:

Town Meeting dates to the European settlement of New England, and it persists today in town halls, schools and auditoriums. Not to be confused with Town Hall meetings, the New England Town Meeting is a form of direct democracy in which a community gathers and votes on budgets and policies.
