Dismayed by the turmoil and inconclusive results of the April 2024 Annual Town Meeting, the Committee for a New Andover Charter was formed in May 2024. Since then, approximately 3,000 residents have joined us in signing petitions calling for Andover to seriously consider a change to our town government by creating a Charter Commission.

The Committee for a New Andover Charter is a Ballot Question Committee and operates under rules established by the Massachusetts Office of Campaign and Political Finance. Richard Howe is the Committee Chairman, and Brad Wright is the Treasurer. They can be reached by sending an email to: [email protected].

Further information about Charter Commissions is included in the Questions and Answers section.
