Although the November elections are still months away, Hillsborough Mayor Tom Stevens announced his decision to run for a fourth term Monday.
Stevens has lived in Hillsborough for 14 years and wrote on his website that he sees serving as the town’s mayor as a privilege.
In his six years as mayor, Stevens and the residents of Hillsborough have implemented a vision that highlights small-town character, resident heritage and sustainable living.
While Stevens’ letter announcing his decision to seek another term highlights successes like opening new parks and new businesses, he wrote that there are difficult decisions ahead.
“In these current times, our resources are strained,” he wrote. “More than ever, our decisions have far-reaching impact in shaping our quality of life both in the near future and for generations to come.”
