meeting Friday March 21st 5:00 to 6:00 p.m. in the Howard Room in the Blue Hill
Library.
The ordinance review committee will present the proposed revised ordinance. The
committee was organized to review and update the ordinance shortly after a stop gap
amendment to the ordinance was approved at the 2024 Town Meeting. The stop gap
amendment’s intent was to allow the continuation of treating elm trees for Dutch elm
disease within the town of Blue Hill. The amendment was approved after volunteers
committed to review the amendment and present an alternative at the 2025 Town
Meeting.
