Special Town Meeting Called

A Special Town Meeting has been scheduled for Monday, November 25, 2024 at 5:30pm in the Select Board Room at Town Hall.

In addition to selecting a moderator for the meeting, the sole article to be considered is whether Blue Hill should participate, together with Orland, Penobscot, and Surry, in the statutory “consultation” process associated with the proposed abandonment of the Toddy Pond Dam.

Here is the text of the article:

Shall the Town participate in the statutory consultation process (see 38 M.R.S. § 902), together with other towns affected by the petition to abandon ownership of the Toddy Pond dam and/or Alamoosook Lake dam, to obtain sufficient information about the dam and the towns’ legal options of facilitating an agreement for dam ownership, including whether to participate in or otherwise support a group that would accept ownership of the dam?

The full warrant has been posted at Town Hall and on the Hannaford’s bulletin board.

Saturday Open Town Meeting: 9:30am Start

Although most of our communications have correctly indicated that the meeting will commence at 9:30 am on Saturday (in the Blue Hill Consolidated School Gym), the text in the official, posted Warrant indicates a 9:00 am start time. No official business will be conducted until 9:30 am. Despite this, we encourage attendees to arrive early, such as at 9:00 am. It will take some time to check everyone in (identifying Blue Hill residents entitled to vote); there will be refreshments offered for sale in the Gym, with proceeds used to benefit the Consolidated School students.
