VISION STATEMENT
Citizens of Pelham are proud of the fact that their town was founded in 1743, making it the first incorporated town between Worcester and the Connecticut River Valley towns. Pelham consists of almost twenty-five square miles of woods, streams, hills and grasslands, making it an ideal place to live and raise a family.
As a result of this historical and environmental heritage, Pelham is committed to continuing to provide its citizens with ecologically sound policies, a fine school system and a safe place to live. Pelham is administered through a participative Town Meeting form of government led by an elected Select Board, whose members are committed to maintaining a high quality of life provided by, but not limited to, Public Safety (Fire, Police, Medical Response), Public Works, School System, Library and all Town Boards and Committees.
Pelham welcomes and encourages both new and long-time residents to play an active part in Town government and in the various committees that provide the energy to move the town continuously forward.
