November 7, 2023 Election Results
Veterans Day – office closure
Close Vote Re-count – Thursday, November 9, 2023 at 5:00 p.m.
The re-count is scheduled to take place Thursday, 11/09/2023 at the Town Office Building in the lower-level conference room at 5 pm.
Close Vote (CGS § 9-311a)
The head moderator must call for a recanvass when the difference in the number of votes received by the two highest vote-getters is (1) less than 0.5% of the total number of votes cast for the office, but no more than 2,000 votes for an election (or 1,000 votes for a primary), or (2) less than 20.
In a recanvass for a multiple-opening office (e.g., Board of Education), officials must recanvass the returns for all candidates for all openings for the office. In the case of a multiple-opening office, “the total number of votes cast for the office” means the total number of voters checked as having voted in the district, municipality, or political subdivision, as the case may be. A recanvass is not held if the defeated candidate or candidates file a written statement with the town clerk waiving the right.
Based on the information above, please note that all votes for the three close vote offices will be recounted.
Those offices are:
- Board of Selectmen
- Hebron Board of Education
- Zoning Board of Appeals

Volunteers Sought to Serve on Charter Revision Commission
On October 5, 2023, the Hebron Board of Selectmen established a seven (7) member Charter Revision Commission. The Board is seeking volunteers who are electors within the Town of Hebron to serve on the Charter Revision Commission.
The Town Charter requires that there be a review of the Charter every five years. The Selectmen are currently reviewing items to be included in the charge. The Charter Document can be viewed on the Town of Hebron website at https://ecode360.com/10615452#10615452
Individuals volunteering to be on the Commission must be willing to commit to attending nearly all meetings of the Commission and should have some familiarity with the Town and municipal government.
If you are interested in being considered for appointment to the Charter Revision Commission, please send a letter of interest to the Board of Selectmen in care of the Town Manager’s Office, Town of Hebron, 15 Gilead Street, Hebron, CT 06248 or via email to atierney@hebronct.com by Friday, October 27, 2023. It is anticipated the appointments will be made at the November 2, 2023, Board of Selectmen meeting.
