Winter Harbor selectmen approve warrants, policies and seasonal skate rink
Summary
At their March 23 meeting, Winter Harbor selectmen approved warrants and financial reports, adopted a meeting-place policy and an acceptable-use cyber policy, allowed a seasonal ice-skating rink after insurance sign-off, and tabled a 'Text My Gov' item for further information.
G. Harrington, chair of the Winter Harbor Board of Selectmen, called the meeting to order at 6 p.m. Monday and led the board through a series of routine approvals.
The board approved the minutes of March 9, 2026, and voted to accept Warrants #43 (March 17) and #44 (March 19). The board also accepted the Treasurer’s report dated March 20, 2026; the town’s book balance was listed as $808,142.90, a six-month certificate of deposit totaled $107,539.29, and bond market values were recorded at $2,864,051.00 and $2,847,375.00. The Tax Collector’s report (dated March 20) was accepted; taxes receivable were reported as FY26: $102,202.91 and FY25: $13,690.19.
Town Manager Sara J. Liscomb reported the board approved a new Meeting Place Policy and an Acceptable Use Agreement for cyber security; both motions passed, recorded as approved 3-0. The board also approved carry-over accounts as presented.
On a separate motion, the board voted to permit a community ice-skating rink after Liscomb said insurance had approved the town installing an ice rink provided the town posts proper rules and signage. That motion was recorded as approved 3-0.
The board tabled discussion of a proposed 'Text My Gov' item, requesting additional information and returning the matter to a future meeting. The meeting packet included a thank-you letter, an investment statement and a Schoodic EMS report for members' information.
The meeting adjourned at 7:37 p.m. Minutes were submitted by Sara J. Liscomb, Town Manager.
