Board and Committee Openings
Nomination papers for town election are available at town hall for nine open seats on five town committees.
Two select board seats now occupied by chair Kristen Reed and clerk John Dundas are up for election.
Robert Masson’s seat on the cemetery commission expires this spring, as do two library trustee seats held by chair Kaitlin Blehm and vice chair Keith Althaus.
The term of the vice chair of the planning board, Anne Greenbaum, is also up this spring.
Three seats on the school committee, those of chair Vida Richter and members Kenneth Oxtoby and Edwige Yingling, will appear on the ballot in May.
Every available slot is for a three-year term, and nomination papers can be pulled and filed at town hall.
Given the recent postponement of town election to May 29, the deadline for filing nomination papers will be delayed. That date has not yet been announced. —Sophie Mann-Shafir
