Not Many Choose To Run at Pownal
The Pownal town caucus reveals widespread reluctance to hold offices. Incumbent A Coleman Mason declined for selectman, with 11 more declines before Mason accepted.

A five-member study committee was named to study a proposed town highway department ahead of March vote, with likely a two-thirds bond requirement.
