Select Board agrees to include shared sheriff coverage and patrol car on June ballot

Mar 26, 2026

The board agreed to present a single warrant article asking voters to continue York County Sheriff's coverage (up to 20 hours shared with Shapleigh) and to share the cost of a patrol car (estimated total about $77,000 combined), with final numbers to be provided in the article text.

The full story

The Town Administrator outlined a proposed warrant article asking whether Acton should continue to contract York County Sheriff services (shared up to 20 hours with Shapleigh) and fund 50% of a shared patrol car. The board asked that the article present a single combined question so the coverage and car funding would either pass or fail together. The estimate discussed in the meeting was about $77,000 (approx.) for the town’s portion.
