To participate in the upcoming Annual Town Election, there are a few important deadlines to keep in mind. If you wish to vote by mail, your application must be submitted in writing and received by the town clerk’s office no later than 5 p.m. on Monday, June 2nd. It’s important to apply as early as possible, particularly if your ballot will be mailed out of town. The U.S. Postal Service recommends allowing up to seven days for mail delivery, so to ensure you receive your ballot in time to return it, it’s best to apply two to three weeks before Election Day. Additionally, the last day to register to vote in order to participate in the election is Wednesday, May 28th. Registration will be available in the town clerk’s office from 9 to 11 a.m. and again from 3 to 5 p.m. on that day.
The Annual Town Meeting is scheduled to take place a few weeks before the election, on Saturday, May 17th at 9:30 a.m., and will be held at the John James Memorial Hall, located at 42 Main Street. To participate in the meeting, residents must be registered to vote by Wednesday, May 7th. Voter registration will be available that day at the town clerk’s office from 9 to 11 a.m. and again from 3 to 5 p.m. on that day.
