Brookline voters have until Friday, Oct. 30, to cast early ballots ahead of the Nov. 3 state election, according to the Town Clerk's office.

Three locations hosted early voting over the weekend: Brookline Town Hall at 333 Washington St., Coolidge Corner Library at 31 Pleasant St. and Putterham Library at 959 W. Roxbury Parkway. For the remaining weekday period of Monday, Oct. 26, through Friday, Oct. 30, the Town Clerk's page lists only Town Hall as an early voting site. The town's October newsletter lists all three locations for the full early voting period, but the Town Clerk's page is more specific about the weekday schedule.

Weekday hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Friday.

Voters who want a mail-in ballot must request one by 5 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 27. The state election ballot consists of two voting cards, and the Town Clerk's office asks voters to return both when voting by mail. Ballot drop boxes sit at Town Hall, Coolidge Corner Library and Putterham Library.

Mail-in ballots postmarked on or before Nov. 3 must reach the Town Clerk's office by Nov. 6 for domestic mail or Nov. 13 for overseas mail. Voters can track their ballot at TrackMyBallotMA.com.

Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 3. All precincts open 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.

CPA survey closes Nov. 6

Separately, the town is asking residents to weigh in on Community Preservation Act (CPA) spending priorities through a survey open until Nov. 6, according to the October newsletter from Town Administrator Chas Carey.

The CPA funds projects in four categories: affordable housing, historic preservation, open space and outdoor recreation. The town describes the survey as taking about five minutes. Residents can find it at TinyURL.com/BrooklineCPASurvey or visit BrooklineMA.gov/CPAFunding for details on CPA-funded projects.

Driscoll School solar panels hit 68 MWh

The newsletter also reports that more than 400 solar panels atop the new, all-electric Driscoll School have generated 68 megawatt-hours of electricity in their first 11 weeks after going live over the summer.

The town's Sustainability Division said that output equals enough electricity to power eight Massachusetts homes for a full year. The division said the project delivers on goals in the 2026 Climate Action and Resiliency Plan as Brookline works toward net-zero emissions by 2050.
