The '''November 2025 Special Town Meeting''' in Sterling, Massachusetts has been in recess since approximately 19:00 on Monday, November 3, 2025. It is expected to reconvene at an undetermined location on Thursday, November 13.

Several significant articles are on the warrant, including a zoning bylaw related to the [[w:MBTA Communities Act|MBTA Communities Act]] and a $2 million dollar appropriation for the [[DPW building project]].

The original meeting was scheduled for 18:30 on November 3. There was an unprecedented level of attendance at the meeting, with many voters waiting outside the venue or struggling to find parking. Select Board member and Clerk Maureen Cranson remarked that she had "never seen so many come out for a special [town meeting.]"<ref name="sbmembers">{{cite web|url=https://www.sterling-ma.gov/select-board|title=Select Board|work=sterling-ma.gov}}</ref><ref name="itempostpone">{{cite web|url=https://www.clintonitem.com/sterling-meeting-postponed-too-many-voters-for-room/|title=Sterling meeting postponed; too many voters for room|work=Clinton Item|date=November 3, 2025|last=Gottesman|first=Jan}}</ref>

Because the venue could not accommodate all of the voters in attendance, a recess was declared shortly after the start of the meeting.<ref name="itempostpone"/>

=== Rescheduling and venue ===
On the night of the 3rd, Assistant Town Clerk Shane Rhodes told the ''Clinton Item'' that the meeting would be rescheduled for the night of Thursday, November 13. However, the location of the new meeting had not yet been decided.<ref name="itempostpone"/>
