Bar Harbor is fortunate to have such a passionate, enlightened, and driven community that is paired with a team of municipal employees with ‘can do’ attitudes who exceed every expectation. This combination should be celebrated, but eventually without more resources (time and/or money), it becomes unsustainable.
On March 8th, 2022, Town Councilors, Chairs of Boards, Committees, and Task Forces, along with Bar Harbor staff came together to further identify and review the challenges facing Bar Harbor, prioritize where we need to focus our time and efforts, and begin to build a roadmap for how we address these challenges.
