New Milford Voters To Elect Two Council, Four School Board Members
A total of nine candidates are running in local elections—four for two seats on the Council, and four for three, three-year terms and one for a one-year term on the BOE. Polls are open from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday.

District 1 through 7 will vote at Berkley School and Districts 8 and 9 will vote at the New Milford Library.
