Neither of the Alna selectmen whose seats are up for election March 26 sought to stay on, and voters will have choices for both seats. Nominations closed at noon Tuesday. Town Clerk Sheila McCarty said Kyle Levasseur and Linda Kristan will be on the ballot for the second selectman’s seat Doug Baston now holds; and Christopher Cooper and Charles Culbertson are running for third selectman, the seat Greg Shute now holds.
Road Commissioner Jeff Verney will be unopposed on the ballot for another one-year term; and recent Sheepscot Valley Regional School Unit 12 board appointee Kristina Verney is running unopposed for that seat, McCarty said.

One of Jeff Spinney’s neighbors after another on Zoom Wednesday night criticized his and the town’s shoreland deal. Selectmen signed the agreement they said Spinney, of Golden Ridge Road, also signed and abutters declined to sign. Board members called the agreement a compromise that was in the town’s best interest.
