Town elections will be held on November 4, but the process of finding candidates is beginning now. Serving on a town board or commission is a rewarding experience and necessary to keep the town progressing forward. You have what it takes. Your time would be much appreciated. Boards and commissions are comprised of members of all political affiliations who work together in the best interest of the town.
The slate of candidates is typically endorsed by each party in July. Candidates can also petition to have their names placed on the ballot. Unaffiliated voters can be endorsed by the Democrat or Republican Town Committees. All interested residents are encouraged to consider this opportunity and send a brief bio/resume to the chairperson of either the Democratic Town Committee: Tom Frenaye, frenaye@pcnet.com or the Republican Town Committee: Michael Haines, info.suffieldrepublicans@gmail.com. Visit the CT Secretary of State website for additional information.
Candidates are sought for the following boards: Assessment Appeals, Education, Finance, First Selectman, Selectmen, Fire, Planning and Zoning, Police and Water Pollution Control.
