Gilford March election ballot set

Published Date

GILFORD — Four residents are vying for three openings on the Budget Committee in the upcoming town election.
With incumbent Dale Dormody choosing not to run and incumbent Philip "Pat" LaBonte running for the Board of Fire Engineers, David Horvath Sr. is the only incumbent whose term has expired seeking re-election.
The other three candidates are Robert J. Henderson Jr., Jeffrey A. Beane, and Donald H. Pangburn.
Incumbent Selectmen Gus Benavides is not opposed for his third term.
Peter "Rick" Moses is running for Trustee of the Trust Fund; Michael Marshall and Jennifer McLean are running for the two openings as Library Trustee and there was no candidate for the one opening as Cemetery Trustee.
Labonte is being challenged by John "Jack" Lyman for Fire Engineer. Six-term incumbent Phil Brouillard is not seeking reelection.
Brouillard said earlier this week he had served as Fire Engineer for 18 years and thought it was a good idea to get some new blood onto the board.
