A public information and feedback session will be held on Wednesday, February 12 to:

  • provide an update on the process for considering ownership of the Toddy Pond dam,
  • answer questions about the status of the effort, and
  • most importantly, solicit community input on how potential ownership of the dam should be structured and who should bear the costs of ownership

Feedback from this session will inform the Blue Hill Select Board, and the other three towns abutting Toddy Pond, as to the community’s views on:

  • Whether the dam should remain or the waters forming Toddy Pond released, and
  • If the dam is retained, how costs of ownership should be apportioned between property owners and general Blue Hill taxpayers.

All members of the community are invited to attend to share their input.
