ROCHESTER Sarah Eby is an Innovations Nurse Specialist at Southcoast Health, and she thinks the Board of Health could use “a fresh voice.”
She’s running for the board in the May 26 election, and said her “public health knowledge base” and “solid” knowledge of environmental issues make her a balanced candidate for the board.
Eby has been in the Tri-Town for 27 years and Rochester for 16. She’s also been involved in the Boy Scouts since 2011, and acts as Assistant Scout Manager for Rochester Troop 31.
Previously, Eby was an Emergency Medical Technician. She holds a Bachelors in Nursing, a Masters in Health Administration and is a Registered Nurse.

ROCHESTER Candidates for the Board of Health, Planning Board, ORR School Committee, Water Commission and Board of Assessors came out to Candidates Night on May 6.
Moderated by Selectman Woody Hartley, the event at the Rochester Council on Aging offered candidates for the May 26 Town Election an opportunity to state their platform and answer questions from the community.
Hartley started the night by noting there are three elected positions on the ballot with no official candidates: Moderator, Cemetery Commission and Rochester Memorial School Committee.
Hartley encouraged interested residents to launch write-in or “sticker” campaigns.
The first candidate speakers were Sarah Eby and incumbent Dale Barrows running for the Board of Health.
