Two contested races as the Marion Town Election approaches
MARION — With Marion’s Town Election set to be held on Friday, May 16, the races for the available Select Board and the Open Space Acquisition Commission seats are the only ones contested and will feature some familiar faces.
Four candidates are running for one seat on the Select Board, with member Carleton Burr choosing not to pursue reelection.
John Hoagland, who first served on the Select Board from 1986 to 1992, is looking to return to the Board to address the issues he believes still burden the town nearly 40 years later.
This includes resolving infrastructure needs — in particular road repairs — as well as addressing issues with the water and sewer systems and creating infrastructure and housing suitable for senior residents.
