Select Board Seat Open in Clarksburg Election

Print Story | Email Story
CLARKSBURG, Mass. — There are no candidates yet for the Select Board with one week to go before nomination papers are due. 
 
Jeffrey Levanos, who was the only candidate in a special election in 2021, will not run for another term. 
 
Levanos had previously said he was done with public service after serving three terms on the School Committee and two on the Select Board, including being chairman of each at the same time for a period. But vacancies on the board twice had him running again. 
 
He ran as a write-in in 2019 to complete a term when no one stepped forward and on the ballot in the December 2021 election to complete a three-year term ending this year.
 
Also on the ballot this year are one-year terms for moderator and tree warden; three-year seats on the School Committee, Board of Health, Board of Library Trustees and War Memorial Committee; and one five-year term on the Planning Board. 
 
Nomination papers are now available in the town clerk's office. All signatures must be in ink; no electronic signatures are allowed. Completed nomination papers must be returned to the clerk's office for certification no later than Wednesday, March 27.

Companion Corner: Weber at No Paws Left Behind

By Breanna SteeleiBerkshires Staff

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — There's a young cat waiting for a family to play with him.
 
iBerkshire's Companion Corner is a weekly series spotlighting an animal in our local shelters that is ready to find a home.
 
Weber is a 10-month-old domestic shorthair. He has been at No Paws Left Behind since November.
 
Volunteer Claire Morin introduced us to him.
 
"He came in with an abundance of cats that were in a crowded situation in the home," she said. "Most of his brothers and sisters are gone, but Weber is still here."
 
Weber loves the attention and if you aren't giving him enough he will let you know.
 
"Weber is very, very sweet. As you can see, he's very needy for attention. He loves his treats, and he can get a little overstimulated. He's very attention seeking. And if you don't give him attention right away, he nips at you a little bit, not a bite, more like a tender here I am — pay attention to me," Morin said. "But he's very engaging, and he's a very, very sweet boy."
