The Orange Democratic Town Committee is inviting Democrats to run for office in town. The committee will begin interviewing potential candidates in February.
The ODTC is currently working on its slate for the Nov. 7 local elections.
“Running for office does not require any prior political experience. It requires a passion and a commitment to be part of the political bodies that make the decisions to run and manage Orange,” the committee said in a press release.
Candidates are being sought for paid and volunteer positions. The paid positions are first selectman ($108,046), tax collector ($72,795) and town clerk ($72,795). The volunteer positions are Board of Selectmen, Board of Finance, Town Planning & Zoning, Orange Board of Education, Amity Board of Education, and constables.
