LISBON
A number of elected positions are up for grabs in Lisbon Nov. 7, including an at-large town council seat that will be uncontested.
Councilor Dale Crafts’ seat is expiring and he opted not to run for re-election.
The only candidate running for the seat is a former councilor, Fern Larochelle Jr.
There will be a three-way race for a three-year seat on the Lisbon School Committee. Candidates are Kimberly
Labbe-Poisson, Richard Nadeau and Ross Cunningham.
The seat was held by Gina Mason, who died unexpectedly earlier this month.
Mason was also serving her first term representing Lisbon in the Maine House of Representatives. That term expires in 2018 and will be filled through a special election.
Two candidates are facing off for the three-year seat on the Water Commission. That race is between Arthur McLean and Roger Bickford. Current commission member Kenneth Wells did not seek re-election.
Lisbon voters will also see two bond ordinance questions.
The first is a $1.65 million bond to finance energy efficiency upgrades and capital infrastructure improvements to Lisbon School District buildings.
The second proposed bond is for $6.5 million to finance wastewater collection and treatment system upgrades and other related improvements.
