The town will hold municipal elections from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday at the Town Office. Town Meeting will begin at 7:30 p.m. at the Outdoor Center. Residents will vote on a 63-item warrant at the meeting. The total of the proposed budget is $2,468,475.
Running uncontested for two seats on the Board of Selectmen are incumbents Lloyd Cutler and Robert Luce. Incumbent Carl Demshar is also running uncontested for director of the Sanitary District.
