CANTON — One person filed nomination papers for one of two openings on the Select Board, Town Clerk Angela Varnum said Friday, the deadline for filing.

Shawn Goodrow submitted papers for a one-year term. Selectman Rob Walker did not seek reelection.

No one has submitted papers for a three-year term held by Kristi Carrier, who also did not seek reelection.

Carl Lueders is seeking reelection for a three-year term on the Regional School Unit 56 board of directors. Tom Peters is also a candidate.

No papers were submitted for three openings on the Planning Board, each for three years. Two are held by Robyn McClintock and Tom Peters, respectively, and the third is a long-term vacancy.

Elections will be held June 11 at the Town Office meeting room.

Selectmen decided at their meeting Thursday night that they will vote at their next meeting on ATV access route signs, trail speeds and times when ATVs are allowed on the Staples Hill Road route.

Chairman Brian Keene said the board will decide April 25 if they want to restrict the ATV access route trail to 20 mph and allow ATVs from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

“We want to thank Brian (Jordan) from the ATV club for coming in and hashing out some stuff with us and throwing some ideas around with us” and trying to make a plan for the Staples Hill access route, Keene said.

“It’s good to have everybody working together,” Jordan said.
