The Town Clerk reported the town recorded "4 births, 11 deaths, and 4 weddings" for the year and said current voter registrations stand at about 948, down from roughly 974 the prior year. The clerk told the board she has 74 challenged voters on the rolls and that dog licenses closed the year at 304, with six already licensed for the new year.
On election logistics, the clerk said petition deadlines require 5% of registered voters for dollar petitions (48 signatures) by Jan. 15 and 1% for candidate petitions (10 signatures) by Jan. 26, and said she will post the required warning by Feb. 1 and coordinate with Susan. The board discussed who customarily reads the warning at the informational hearing and confirmed the clerk and staff will handle postings and coordination.
