CHESTERVILLE — The Chesterville Select Board discussed the potential installation of security cameras at the town office and preparations for the upcoming Chesterville Fun Day during its most recent meeting.

Board members reviewed a proposal to enhance security by installing surveillance cameras both inside and outside the town office building. Some residents have voiced support for the move, citing concerns about safety and accountability.
