Portland Water District Board of Trustees fails to attract candidate
Also up for election on the Nov. 3 ballot is a five-year term representing Cape Elizabeth and South Portland on the Portland Water District Board of Trustees. However, Lane said, no one from either community sought nomination for this seat.
There is a potential for a write-in campaign, Lane said. Anyone who writes in a name for this seat must include the name and municipality of residence. The trustee may be a resident of Cape Elizabeth or South Portland.
