Election: Sample Ballot & Volunteers

Town Election Day is June 8th. Voting will take place at the American Legion from 7am to 7pm. We are currently looking for resident volunteers to fill important roles at the Legion on Election Day.

We look forward to seeing you all on Thursday to discuss what we will be voting on in June. This is your opportunity to hear your neighbors’ thoughts, let others know how you feel about topics, and potentially vote to change (or not change!) text that will be on the ballot.

See you all on Thursday!

TOWN HALL CLOSED THURSDAY, MAY 6

Town Hall will be closed on Thursday, May 6th due to preparations that need to take place for the Town Deliberative Session, which will begin at 6:00pm in the main hall of the American Legion.
Please come to the American Legion at 551 Foundry Street at this time to take part in this important town event.

MESSAGE REGARDING DOG LICENSE FEES

Many residents have received or will soon receive a Mail-in Dog License renewal form. The fee structure listed on that form already includes the $0.75 special postage fee. For example, a 2021 license for one altered (spayed/neutered) dog costs $7.50, plus the $0.75 for special postage. Therefore, if you’re renewing by mail or the drop box, you should make your check out for $8.25.
Seniors over 65 should make their checks out for $4.25 ($3.50, plus the $0.75 for special postage) for one altered dog. The senior discount does not apply to the second, third, or fourth dog.
If you have two to four dogs, you don’t have to pay any more than the $0.75 for special postage. For example, 2021 licenses for two altered (spayed/neutered) dogs cost $15.00, plus the $0.75 for special postage. Therefore, if you’re renewing by mail or the drop box, you should make your check out for $15.75.
If you choose to renew your dog’s license in person at Town Hall, then you can ignore the $0.75 special postage fee altogether.
We apologize for the confusion!

2021 Dog Licenses

Dog licenses expire on April 30th. Please feel free to come to Town Hall during our new operating hours (Mondays 8:00am to 1:00pm, Thursdays 1:00pm to 6:00pm, and Fridays 8:00am to 1:00pm) to obtain a new 2021 license or to get your dog registered for the first time. You may also renew by mail or through the drop box, but be sure to include an extra $0.75 for special postage.

Here is a link to the Dog Licensing page: Dog Licenses | Town of Rollinsford. As you will see here, our fee structure has changed slightly. If you have any questions about dog licensing, please e-mail the Town Clerk or call 742-2510 ext. 314.

Reminder: All dogs must have up-to-date rabies vaccinations in order to be granted licenses.
