Sally,

The pdf attached was used about 5 years ago to convince Hopkinton residents
to extend the demo delay from 6 months to 18 months. The key graphic was
the comparative status of towns in the state regarding their demo delay
length.

 I have a larger powerpoint file (18mb) if you are interested?
