No Contests on March 4 Ballot

Westborough voters face no contests when they vote on March 4.

The 5 p.m. Friday deadline for taking out nomination papers passed without multiple candidates for any seat on the annual town ballot, according to the town clerk's office.

The deadline for returning papers signed by 50 registered voters is 5 p.m. Tuesday.

Taking out papers were:

Town Clerk: Wendy Mickel.
Selectman: Ian Johnson.
Planning Board (2 years): Edward Newton Jr.
Library Trustee: Patricia Fontes and Dorothy Mello.
Town Moderator: John Arnold.
Housing Authority: Priscilla Federici.
Planning Board (5 years): Mark Silverberg.
School Committee (3 years): Ilyse Levine-Kanji and Jody Hensley.
School Committee (2 years): George Thompson.

All but Newton, Silverberg, Levine-Kanji and Hensley had returned papers as of 11 a.m. Monday.

A four-year term on the planning board and a three-year term on the library trustees drew no interest.
