VI. Selectboard’s Reports
Ms. Dudman reported that she had heard from a number of residents concerned about the closure
of the dumpsters at the highway garage. Specifically, garbage trucks can’t make their way down
the Town’s many narrow roads and driveways for curbside pickup, making the highway garage
dumpsters necessary. Further public discussion and consideration of the issue would be helpful.
Mr. MacDonald concurred. It was previously noted that communication on the subject was
necessary; resident input should help shape the future of the issue.
Director Henkel agreed there are a number of private roads and driveways narrow enough that a
garbage truck can’t drive down them. Options to accommodate residents in these circumstances
include a wooden bin with trash cans stored inside or a small dumpster left at the end of the narrow
road or driveway, or residents can bring their solid waste to EMR in Southwest Harbor.
Director Henkel encouraged Selectboard Members to send any residents with concerns about their
personal circumstances to him. Other issues that raise concern about dropping solid waste off at
the Highway Garage include safety issues around residents parking where Municipal vehicles are
trying to move and operate, and the fact that there are people from other Towns using the site. If a
resident can get their solid waste to a main road, the Town garbage truck will pick it up. Mr. King
believed that if the highway garage is gated, people will leave their solid waste at the gate.
Cameras would help with that. Chair Macauley noted there are cameras at the site. It was his
belief that the issue was with enforcement.
Town Manager Kimball reported he and some Selectboard Members visited the Hampden site and
were able to see most of the operation in action. A second visit will occur in the coming weeks.
VII. Unfinished Business
A. Review and approve contract with Clarke Construction for the installation of a
stormwater catch basin on a "Time and Materials" basis with funds coming from Public
Works Road Reserve Account 4050100-24573 with an approximate unencumbered
balance of $336,930.45
Director Henkel reported that the installation of a catch basin in this area is complicated due to
water lines and electrical lines located nearby. Because of this he felt the original quote might be
inadequate and requested the work be priced out on a time and materials basis. Oversight of the
work will be done through Hedefine Engineering. The time estimated on the original quote is
likely more than the time needed which makes it a good number to estimate pricing with.
MDOT has used time and materials pricing on their projects.
MOTION: Ms. Dudman moved, with Ms. Littlefield seconding, approval of contract with
Clarke Construction for the installation of a stormwater catch basin on a "Time and Materials"
basis with funds coming from Public Works Road Reserve Account 4050100-24573 with an
approximate unencumbered balance of $336,930.45 as presented.
Motion approved 5-0.

Re: Declaration and Authorized Bid of Surplus Equipment
I would like to request that the Select Board consider declaring our 2007 GMC 4500TC box
truck surplus equipment and authorize the Fire Chief to sell the vehicle by competitive bid.
The box truck was purchased and donated to the Mount Desert Fire Department by the
Mount Desert Fire & Rescue Association to replace an older apparatus that carried our
breathing air compressor and fill station. This was used primarily at emergency scenes,
enabling us to refill Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) bottles while on scene. This
truck was in service until the Northeast Harbor fire station was completed in 2025, when both
the breathing air compressor and fill station were located within the building. Our original
compressor was purchased and used along with a fill station in 2001 and was mobile. This
was necessary due to the Mount Desert Fire Department converting over to higher-pressure
breathing air bottles. We could not rely on other departments to fill our bottles during mutual
aid calls, so we brought our own supply. All area fire departments have now converted their
SCBAs over to higher-pressure models and can fill our bottles at their stations. Together with
the change in our staffing model, the apparatus has outlived its useful life.
There are some mechanical problems with the vehicle. The turbo needs either a rebuild or
replacement. The truck will not go into reverse either, so if sold, it will need to be towed.
Thank you.

Re: Authorization to Release Funds from Account #4040300-24471(Fire Equipment/Engine
Reserve)
I would like to request consideration from the Board of Selectmen to release $45,475.09 from
account #4040300-24471(Fire Equipment/Engine Reserve) and authorization to use such
funds for the purpose of purchasing a new Stryker Power Pro 2 cot for the new ambulance,
which is expected to be delivered in August of this year.
As part of our agreement with the Northeast Harbor Ambulance Service Association
(NHASA), we are to sell back the 2013 Ford/PL Custom ambulance they sold to us in 2023.
We were unsure whether the NHASA would allow us to keep the cot for the new
ambulance. We learned a couple of weeks ago that they would like the cot back as well. As
a result, we will need to order a new cot for the new ambulance.
The approximate unencumbered balance of account #4040300-24471 is $1,868,119.72.
Thank you.

Jordan Pond Road Directional Boring
The Public Works Department solicited bids for the replacement of three segments of wastewater
collection lines in the Town’s Right-of-Way along Jordan Pond Road (Project). One of the segments to be
replaced requires directional boring to replace a collection line under the Acadia National Park carriage
road. In that initial bid opening, the Department received no bids. The Department and the Engineer
contacted several potential bidders regarding their reasoning for not submitting bids. One of the most
repeated reasons from construction firms for not bidding was the added complexity of finding and
managing a directional boring contractor. As such, the Department amended the overall Project bid
specifications to exclude the directional boring component. The Department, through our engineer,
solicited pricing from a directional boring contractor, Enterprise Electric, Inc (Enterprise).
Enterprise submitted the included quote for the directional boring component of the Project. This quote
includes only the directional boring and the remainder of the Project appears elsewhere on this agenda.
There are very few directional boring contractors that service this part of Maine and Enterprise is often
used. The Engineer for the Project has worked with Enterprise on other projects and been satisfied with
their work. Public Works recommends that the Selectboard authorize the Public Works Director to enter
into a contract on behalf of the Town with Enterprise Electric, Inc. for directional boring work on Jordan
Pond Road for a lump sum of $38,142.00.

Jordan Pond Road Sewer Replacement
The Public Works Department solicited a second round of bids for the replacement of three segments of
wastewater collection lines in the Town’s Right-of-Way along Jordan Pond Road (Project). Two of the
segments to be replaced are on either side of an Acadia National Park Carriage Road Bridge (Bridge).
One of the segments is under the Bridge and requires directional boring for the installation of the
segment. The contract for the directional boring component of the Project appears in another agenda
item. In this second solicitation, we received qualified bids from R.F. Jordan, Sargent Corporation, and
Ranger Construction. The low bid was submitted by Ranger Construction in an amount of $1,922,613.00.
Public Works recommends that the Selectboard authorize the Public Works Director to enter into a
contract, on behalf of the Town, with Ranger Construction for the replacement of wastewater collection
system components in Jordan Pond Road in an amount not to exceed $1,922,613.00

Salt/Sand Building Engineering Services Contract
The Public Works Department released a Request for Proposals for engineering services in support of
the construction of salt/sand storage facility, to be located at the Town Garage. The Department
received proposals from Gartley & Dorskey, Olver Associates, and Sewall Engineering. The proposals
were evaluated by Public Works staff based upon company experience, past performance, team
qualifications, technical approach, and schedule.
Public Works recommends that the Selectboard authorize the Public Works Director to enter into a
scope of work and contract negotiation with Gartley & Dorskey for engineering services in support of
the construction of a salt/sand storage facility. That negotiated contract will be brought back to the
Selectboard for approval prior to execution.

MDIRSS / AOS #91
Reorganization Plan – Core Elements
Vote in November 2026
https://www.mdirss.org/page/aos-reorganization
v. 6/2026
This reorganization plan proposes unifying the school administrative districts (MDIRSS/AOS #91) into a single Regional
School Unit (RSU). This RSU will manage all public schools for the participating towns: Bar Harbor, Mount Desert,
Cranberry Isles, Frenchboro, Southwest Harbor, Swan’s Island, Tremont, and Trenton.
🌟
The Big Picture: Our Goals
The new RSU aims to create a stronger, unified, and more efficient school system for future generations.
●
●
●
●
Better Education: Provide equitable access to the best educational programs for all PK–12 students.
Empower Educators: Give teachers and staff the resources, support, and professional collaboration they need.
Financial Sense: Deliver financial fairness and operational efficiency (saving money) for all towns.
A Unified Future: Strengthen our shared commitment to excellence with a sustainable system.
Examples of Problems with the current structure that an RSU will solve:
● Specialized Program Gaps: Programs like Gifted & Talented or Students with Unique Needs (SUN) are
stretched thin in small schools and can't always provide the full range of services students deserve.
● Unequal Educational Access to opportunities means some students miss out on advanced classes,
hands-on learning, or enrichment programs.
● Staffing shortages make it difficult to cover positions and put a heavy strain on schools.
● Transportation inefficiencies and driver shortages impact families and students.
🏛️
REQUIRED PLAN ELEMENTS AS PRESCRIBED BY THE MAINE DOE
How the RSU Will Be Governed
1. RSU Board of Directors (District-Wide)
This 15-member board will be the main governing body for the entire RSU.
● Structure: 15 members elected with residency requirements from across the towns.
● Voting: All 15 members have equal voting authority.
● Seat Apportionment: Seats are assigned based on population/residency. This apportionment mirrors
current high school voting, with the addition of Trenton and Outer Islands having a seat at the table:
○ Bar Harbor - 3
○ Southwest Harbor - 2
○ Cranberry Isles - 1
○ Swan’s Island - 1
○ Frenchboro - 1
○ Tremont - 2
○ Mount Desert - 3
○ Trenton - 2
2. Local School Advisory Councils (Per School)
These councils will replace existing local school boards.
💰
● Purpose: To provide local input and advice to the RSU Board and the school principal. They are a dedicated
avenue for community feedback.
● Responsibilities: Reviewing school budget priorities (including capital improvements) and providing input
on the hiring process for school administration.
● Members: Principal, RSU Board Member, Teachers, Support Staff, Parents, and Students (HS and MS).
Finances & Property: What Changes
1. Property & School Closures
● School Buildings: The RSU will assume ownership (title) of all school buildings.
● Important Protection: The RSU Board CANNOT unilaterally close a school. A school can be closed only
if it is replaced by a new building and approved by the town's voters.
2. Assumption of Current Debt
● Capital Debt (construction/renovation): The RSU will absorb all construction and renovation debt. This is
the most cost-effective approach to future building needs for the district.
● Operational Debt (e.g., bus and copier leases): Assumed by the RSU.
3. Cost-Sharing for the Budget (Tax Fairness)
A funding formula determines each town's contribution to the RSU budget.
○
67% Valuation / 33% Enrollment (Current MDI High School Model)
■ Valuation based on 3-year State Valuation Average
■ Enrollment based on October 1 - October 1 Average
4. Existing Funds & Reserves
Most reserves will be combined for RSU-wide use, ensuring maximum benefit for students:
● PK-8 Bus & Building Reserves: Combined and used district-wide.
● MDI High School Reserves: Kept separate and used only for high school purposes.
● Special Education Reserves (AOS): Retained for all RSU students.
● Local Special Education Reserves: Returned to the towns
5. Personnel and Contracts
● The current teachers' bargaining unit and two support staff agreements remain in place.
🍎
PK-12 Educational Programming
● Programming: Comprehensive PK-12 programming will be maintained.
● School Structure: The current configuration remains unchanged:
○ 8 Elementary Schools (PK-8) and 1 High School (A district middle school is not part of the
reorganization plan voted on in November 2026.)
📝
🗓️
Referendum Vote
“Yes” Votes From - Trenton, Bar Harbor, Southwest, Tremont, Mount Desert
“No” Votes From - One or more of the outer island towns
The RSU - Goes Forward
● If Approved:
○ The Mount Desert Regional School District (MDIHS District) will dissolve.
○ AOS #91 will terminate if at least two of the outer island towns (Cranberry Isles, Frenchboro, Swan’s
Island) approve the plan.
● If Approved, but Outer Islands Don't Approve:
○ The RSU moves forward.
○ AOS #91 will continue to operate only on the outer islands if two or more outer island towns vote "No."
Proposed Timeline
● Proposed Referendum Date: November 2026
● Transition Period: If approved, the current AOS board will appoint an interim RSU board to manage the
transition (e.g., developing the first-year budget and maintaining current personnel policies).
The Ballot Question
"Do you favor approving the school administrative reorganization plan prepared by the MDIRSS-AOS #91 Reorganization
Planning Committee to reorganize Trenton, Bar Harbor, Southwest Harbor, Tremont, Mount Desert, Swan’s Island,
Cranberry Isles, and Frenchboro into a Regional School Unit with an effective date of 7/1/2028?" Yes / No
INFORMATIONAL
Jul 21, 2026
To: Select Board, Town Manager, and Public Works Director
I am writing to express my concern regarding the proposal to close the public dumpsters on
Sargent Drive on behalf of myself and fellow Mount Desert residents, both year-round and
seasonal.
For decades, these dumpsters have provided a reliable and valued service for household
waste disposal. Closing this facility would eliminate an important community resource that
many residents have relied upon for years.
The problem is not the responsible use of the dumpsters by Mount Desert residents, but
rather the lack of enforcement against non-residents and the improper disposal of
prohibited materials. Instead of eliminating the service, the Town should focus on
addressing the misuse.
There are several practical solutions that would reduce abuse while preserving resident
access, including resident-only permits or stickers, improved surveillance cameras,
increased monitoring, and stricter enforcement of existing rules. These measures would
directly target the source of the problem without penalizing the residents who use the
facility responsibly.
I understand that the recent Maine Municipal Risk Assessment identified the current
dumpster location as unsafe and a potential liability. If that is the case, I respectfully urge
the Town to relocate the dumpsters rather than eliminate them. One possible solution
would be to utilize the former recycling container area, which could provide a safer
location, even if it requires repurposing a portion of the existing storage area. If fencing is
necessary to improve safety, the dumpsters could remain accessible outside the enclosed
area, allowing public access while addressing operational concerns.
Removing the Sargent Drive dumpsters would place an unnecessary burden on many
residents, particularly seniors, seasonal homeowners, and long-time users. It would also
increase the amount of household trash placed at the curb, creating additional demands
on our already essential refuse collection workers.
Residents should not lose a valued public service because of a lack of enforcement. The
solution is to fix the problem—not eliminate the resource.
I respectfully ask the Select Board to reconsider this proposal and instead pursue practical
solutions that improve safety, strengthen enforcement, and preserve this important
community service. Doing so would address the underlying issues while maintaining a
valuable benefit that residents have depended on for generations.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I also want to express my sincere appreciation
to the Select Board Members, Town Manager, Public Works Department, and all Town
employees for their continued service, hard work, and dedication to the Town of Mount
Desert and its residents.
Respectfully,
Brian Silverman
