Did you know Business Name Registration

02/20/2025

for MERCANTILE PARTNERSHIPS AND ASSUMED BUSINESS NAMES is a State of Maine Requirement?

What is a DBA (or “Doing Business As”)? 

A DBA is a registered name that a business/individual uses to operate a business under a name that is not its legal name. Unlike LLCs and corporations which default to a company name, sole proprietors and general partnerships default to the business owner’s personal name. 

In Maine, sole proprietors and partnerships register DBAs with the clerk’s office in the town they do business in.

Toddy Pond Dam Meeting: 2/12

02/11/2025 (Five-Town Dam Committee, Public Hearings, Select Board)

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.
