McCann (?) won't seek new term on select board, planning board member to resign after election

After initially taking out nomination papers to run for a second term, select board member Jason McCann said this week he has changed his mind and will retire from the board when his term expires this spring.

Planning board member Cindy Borges, elected to a five-year term in 2024, also announced her intention to step down after the May 18 election.

With McCann’s departure from the race, there are five people considering running for the two available three-year terms on the select board, as Town Clerk Lori West reported that Michael A. Sampson requested nomination papers last Thursday.

Incumbent Jerry Taverna could be challenged by Sampson, Susan Short Green, Patricia Lynn Cormier, and Christopher Niland.
