The League of Women Voters of Wellesley will be holding this live information session for anyone interested in running for Town Meeting or one of Wellesley’s Boards in our town's March 2024 election. This session will also be recorded and available on Wellesley Media shortly after the event.
DID YOU KNOW?
* The Select Board is the executive branch of Wellesley
* Town Meeting is the legislative body of Wellesley
* Only Town Meeting Members can vote at Town Meeting
* There are 29,550 people in Wellesley, but only 240 Town Meeting Members.
* Wellesley has a decentralized form of government with more than 50 Town boards and committees and their staff conducting the business of the Town
Our town runs thanks to a group of dedicated citizen volunteers along with the wonderful town staff. There are volunteer opportunities large and small where you can run to help keep Wellesley working - from Town Meeting to Select Board.
Learn from Wellesley residents who ran and who won:
- How Wellesley Town Government is structured & the boards that make it up
- How to run a campaign & timing for March 2024 election
- Time commitment for Town Meeting as well as some other boards
