Opinion

DiPENTIMA, J.

In this mandamus action, the plaintiffs, Bruce Morris and George Kleeman, appeal from the summary judgment rendered in favor of the defendants, the board of selectmen (board) of the town of Preston and its three members,1 denying the plaintiffs’ request for an order to compel the defendants to call a town meeting. The plaintiffs claim that the trial court improperly determined that their application to the board presented an improper purpose for a town meeting. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
