FOREWORD
The League of Women Voters is a non-profit civic organization whose purpose is to promote political responsibility through informed and active participation of citizens in government. Each local League is a member of both the League of Women Voters of Massachusetts and the League of Women Voters of the United States. The League does not support candidates or political parties, but does study, reach consensus among its members, and take action on issues on a local, state, and national level. Formed in 1920 by women who wished to make good use of their new franchise, the League of Women Voters has been working ever since for better government.
The Dover League was organized in 1952 and has maintained an active participation in town government since that time.
The Dover League of Women Voters in partnership with the Town of Dover has published this information as a public service. The League wishes to thank the many Town officials and interested citizens who have contributed so generously of their time, advice, and knowledge of our town and its structure of government; without their help, this publication would not have been possible. In particular, the Dover League is grateful to the Dover Board of Selectmen for having provided assistance with the production of this booklet and the website (www.doverma.org). We also wish to thank Larry Maglott, Dover photographer, for the cover photo; William Barrett and David Rains, Dover-Sherborn Suburban Press, for the interior text photos; and Ross Whistler for the Open Space map of Dover.
