Annual Census forms
Have been mailed to every household and must be returned to the Town Clerk’s Office. Â This allows us to keep our resident and voter information current. Â State law requires that census nonrespondents who are voters must be moved to the inactive voter list.
If you haven’t received your census form or need another one, please contact the Town Clerk’s Office and we will send a form out to you.
Dog Licensing
Dogs must be licensed annually for the calendar year (licensing Fee: $15 per spayed/neutered dog; $20 per unaltered dog).
The grace period for licensing your dog is Monday, March 31st. Â A late fee of $25 per family will be added to the licensing fee beginning April 1st according to town bylaw. Â Dog owners ages 70 and older do not need to pay to license their dog(s) but a late fee will still apply.
