  • Board of Assessors – Ronald Cordes, nominated by John Linzs
  • Board of Health – Anita Raj, nominated by Bea Brunkhorst
  • Bedford Housing Authority – Ellis Kriesberg, nominated by Jane Puffer
  • Library Trustee – Michael Pulizzi, nominated by Robert Batt

  • Shawsheen Valley Technical High School Board – Glenn McIntyre, nominated by Bea Brunkhorst
  • School Committee – Daniel Brosgol, nominated by Elizabeth Brosgol
  • Selectman – Margot Fleischman, nominated by Emily Mitchell

As sometimes happens, several positions went unfilled although Sarah Thompson, an incumbent candidate for Board of Health, secured her nomination papers at the Caucus and plans to return them to the Town Clerk’s office with at least 50 certified signatures before the close of business on January 22 to assure her place on the March 10 ballot.

Residents interested in running for seats on the Bedford Housing Authority or the Board of Library Trustees that were not filled at the Caucus, or seeking to create a contest for any other position, may pick up nomination papers at the Town Clerk’s office during regular business hours. The Citizen has learned that at least one candidate, Dennis Ahern, has collected nomination signatures to get onto the ballot for Library Trustee.
