Carver Town Meetings
What’s happening in Carver government — Select Board, School Committee, Planning, Finance, and Town Meeting. Show up. Speak up. Carver has governed itself since 1790.
Carver runs on Town Meeting — the purest form of self-government in America, where residents, not politicians, set the budget and make the rules. The meetings below are open to the public. The single most effective thing any resident can do is walk into the room.
Select Board
5 elected members
Mark E. Townsend (Chair), Dan Ryan (Vice-Chair), Sarah G. Hewins, John J. Cotter, Jim Elliman. Day-to-day administration: Glenn Cannon.
Town Meeting
Open Town Meeting
The warrant — every article the town will vote on — is posted by the Town Clerk ahead of the meeting. Read it before you go.
Boards & Committees
Planning, Finance, Schools
Most of what changes a town happens at board meetings nobody attends. Seats open every year — tell us if you would serve.
Meeting dates, agendas, and minutes are published by the Town of Carver at www.carverma.gov. Always confirm the time and location on the official town calendar before attending.
