Westborough town officials are seeking a new volunteer for the Municipal Building Committee, while the Westborough Post Office is preparing to host a passport fair Saturday for residents needing travel documents.

Separately, applications are now open for the town's Fall 2026 Civic Leadership Academy, giving residents interested in local government a closer look at how the town operates, per the same reporting circulating this week.

Westborough's Fire Chief Search Committee has also moved into the interview stage as the town works to fill its next fire chief position, with the committee meeting to begin evaluating candidates.

COMMUNITY & ARTS

The Westborough Post Office will hold a passport fair on Saturday, July 25, offering a limited number of walk-in residents the chance to apply for or renew passports without a prior appointment, according to a notice distributed by the U.S. Postal Service's Massachusetts newsroom.
