Wellesley Select Board candidates discuss housing, business & more at Chamber debate

The Charles River Regional Chamber on Friday morning hosted an online Wellesley Select Board candidate forum just ahead of the town election on Tuesday, March 3. A few dozen people attended the event live; we’ve embedded a recording below.

Candidates Marc Charney, Beth Sullivan Woods, and Tom Ulfelder shared thoughts on everything from the MassBay development plan to commercial tax rates and from economic development and to housing realities.

The debate format was designed to generate more back-and-forth than earlier candidate forums from Sustainable Wellesley and the League of Women Voters of Wellesley.

About half of Wellesley voters typically send in their ballots by mail, so for those you who haven’t done that yet or who plan to vote in person, this forum gives you one last look at the candidates.
