Selectmen request public meeting on possible sale of Sargent Street marina
Summary
Pearl Barto raised discussion about selling the old marina on Sargent Street; the board asked that a public meeting be arranged to gather community input before proceeding.
The Town of Winter Harbor Selectmen discussed the potential sale of the old marina on Sargent Street at their Aug. 25 meeting and requested that a public meeting be scheduled to allow community input. The topic was introduced under "Marina" business by Pearl Barto, and the board expressed interest in further public discussion.
Why it matters: A marina sale could affect waterfront access, local boaters and nearby property owners. The board’s decision to hold a public meeting signals it seeks resident feedback before committing to a sale or specifying terms.
Details: The minutes note "Much discussion" occurred regarding the sale but do not record a vote, price, buyer interest, or a timeline for any transaction. The board asked town staff to set up a public meeting to discuss the potential sale and gather community input.
What happens next: The minutes indicate a public meeting will be scheduled; no date or formal vote was recorded in the transcript.
