CONWAY — Two Planning Board seats with three-year terms will be up for grabs in Conway’s election this spring, as Susan Fentin and Chair Beth Girshman are not seeking re-election.
Nominations for the two seats will be taken at the annual caucus, which will be held on Thursday, March 16, at 7 p.m. at Town Hall. Alternatively, nomination papers will also be available following the caucus for those who are unable to attend. Papers must be returned by April 21.
The Planning Board meets twice monthly and is responsible for special permitting, public hearings, zoning bylaws and long-range planning for the town. Past projects include bylaw revisions for flood plains, solar arrays and cannabis facilities.
