Karen Hatcher has dropped out of the race for Peterborough Select Board, citing a previously undiscovered passage in the Peterborough town employee handbook that precluded her from serving on the board and as Peterborough’s Community and Economic Development Coordinator.
“It came to my attention a few minutes ago that there is an explicit line in the Town of Peterborough employee handbook that prevents a town employee from being a Select Board Member,” Hatcher wrote in a statement posted on social media Sunday afternoon. “I was unaware of this when I filed to run for office.”

Greer grew up in Livermore Falls and said that his family was always drawn to Wilton for its various community outlets.
“Whether it be swimming at Kineowatha Park, bowling at Meadow Lanes, ice cream at Dutch Treat, or enjoying seasonal change with the Blueberry Festival, there was always something going on that drew my family to this area,” Greer wrote in an email.
February 24, 2021LANCASTER There are two candidates seeking to fill the vacant Select Board seat in Lancaster. Both names should be familiar to all. Rob Christie and Troy Merner seek to have your vote on Town Meeting Day. The Coös County Democrat spoke with both candidates, who offered their thoughts and visions moving forward.
Resident Rob Christie explained why he decided to run, stating When I was a scout in Troop 219, I took the Order of the Arrow pledge to a Life of Cheerful Service. I am running to be chosen, to serve the people of Lancaster during changing times. A Select Board Member is responsible to local taxpayers. Lancaster runs pretty well, but I see room for improvement.
