Nomination papers for candidates for Wellesley’s town-wide offices and Town Meeting member seats are available starting Wednesday, Dec. 4.
Pull papers at the Town Clerk’s office, located at 888 Worcester Street, Suite 140 until Dec. 18. As of December 26, nomination papers will be available at the reopened Town Hall building at 525 Washington Street.
Nomination papers must be returned by 5 p.m. on Jan. 14, 2025.
The Swellesley Report welcomes letters to the editor announcing candidacies (or from incumbents who have decided not to run for re-election).
What we know so far is that Select Board member Lise Olney has announced she will not seek re-election. On the School Committee, one 3-year term will be up for grabs (Craig Mack’s term expires), and one 1-year term (Catherine Mirick vacated her seat earlier this year when she moved out of town, and Sharon Clarke was appointed to fill it until the March 2025 election; candidates will be able to run for the remaining one year left in that term.)
The Wellesley League of Women Voters will be hosting a seminar on How to Run for Office on Wednesday Dec. 4 at 7 p.m. at the Warren Recreation Building (90 Washington St.).
Wellesley’s Annual Town Election is Tuesday, March 4, 2025.
