WELLFLEET There is only one contested race on the ballot for the annual town election on June 14 an open three-year seat on the Cemetery Commission.
“I wouldn’t run if I didn’t feel like I had to,” commission candidate Donna Rickman said. Commission incumbent David Agger is also running again, having served on the commission for nine years.
One issue, from Rickman’s perspective, is a cemetery restoration project funded by Community Preservation Act funds by town meeting voters in 2014, 2017 and 2020.
Questions about the ongoing restoration at Pleasant Hill and Duck Creek cemeteries arose around the time of the annual town meeting last September. At that town meeting a majority of the Select Board did not recommend spending the proposed $10,000, which would have made the total money granted around $96,000.

PROVINCETOWN The Provincetown Public Pier Corporation continues to face legal challenges after reclassifying commercial fishermen’s vessels last year – especially from one person.
Provincetown resident and fisherman David Flattery was shocked last summer when he was no longer granted a commercial fishing slip at MacMillan Pier, a spot he held since 2015 for his 22-foot his shellfish vessel Bethany Lynn, he said.
Pier Corp. Board of Director members and Pier Manager Doug Boulanger made the decisions while trying to correctly apply local harbor regulations so that fishermen who are allocated slips at the town-owned pier, and are designated as full-time commercial fishermen, fit the qualifications in the regulations, according to their comments at public meetings.
