The Select Board reappointed three individuals and filled additional seats on town boards and committees last week, according to a Patch report cited in Google's news alerts for the town. The move keeps several standing committees staffed as the town heads into the fall municipal calendar.

Separately, the town has released voting details for the 2026 Massachusetts state primary election, scheduled for early September, including options for early voting and vote-by-mail, per a Patch report. Residents planning to vote absentee or early should watch for further instructions from the Town Clerk's office as the date approaches.

Mosquito control crews are scheduled to return to Shrewsbury again this month as part of the town's seasonal spraying program, according to a Patch report. Specific dates and treatment areas were not detailed in available reporting.
