As published here on March 6, 2023, there were Caucus nominees for every open position in Weston’s all-volunteer town boards, except for Commissioner of Trust Funds (1-year position).

Due to issues having to do with not being a US voter, the Caucus nominee for the Board of Health had to withdraw. Fortunately, papers were requested, signatures received and now we have a Board of Health candidate on the ballot who is Diana Chaplin. The only open position remains Commissioner of Trust Funds (the one-year position fill), and I guess we need to figure out who to write in, no?

The Owl enjoys writing profiles of our candidates for election, and tomorrow will feature longtime Wildcat, Tom Palmer. If any other candidate would like some air time, please contact the Owl at thewestonowl@gmail.com.
