Micro-site
With the proposed acquisition of the properties at 30 Tenney Hill (the GSA Hinckley Dorm property) and in the vicinity of the Blue Hill Consolidated School approaching a Town vote, the Town has published a website with
- information about the proposed transaction,
- the rationale for considering relocation of the fire station,
- alternatives considered,
- conceptual designs for a relocated Public Safety building,
- project cost and financing considerations,
- details about the BHCS land acquisition, and
- some comments on the process envisioned for deciding what the Town should do with any excess property beyond its requirements.
The site is available at https://firestation.bluehillme.gov.
Informational Meeting
The Select Board and Fire Department plan to hold an informational meeting on Thursday, August 21 at 6:30pm in the Gordon Emerson Auditorium at the Blue Hill Town Hall.
This meeting will provide an opportunity for interested parties to ask questions about the proposed relocation and to probe further into the materials posted on the micro-site.
The Select Board expects to hold a Special Town Meeting to consider and vote on the proposal on Sunday, August 24 at 5:00pm, but the warrant calling that meeting has not yet been issued.
