For our Town to be fully represented at Town Meeting, each precinct must have a total of 15 elected Town Meeting Representatives. Every year, five slots need to be filled. Right now, with only this week to go to pull nomination papers, there are still 4 seats open in Precincts 1, 5 & 6. Please don't let the rest of the Town decide for your neighborhoods! Step up and pull papers! Call 978-250-5205 and we will walk you through the process. Thank you!
