RECAP MDOT BRIEFING ON MILL STREET BRIDGE
Wednesday night, the Maine
Department of Transportation (MDOT) gave citizens of Lisbon an initial briefing
on the proposed replacement of the Mill Street Bridge. There was a lot of information put out and
there was a question and answer section.
Approximately, 12-15 residents attended.
The bottom line is that the
proposed project is in the initial stage and has not been approved by MDOT;
having said that, the representative of MDOT felt confident that he was going
to get this project approved. MDOT has
put aside $1.2 million dollars to pay for the project. Also, the representative stated this was a MDOT
project and there will be NO local funding required. In other words, the people of Lisbon will not
have to pay for any of this project.
This is good news for the people.

Assuming everything goes as
planned, the project is scheduled to begin summer 2017 and be completed prior
to school starting. However, there are
no busses supposed to be on the Route 196 side of the Mill Road. It was reported by residents in the audience;
buses are still using Route 196 side for access to the Lisbon Community School
(LCS).

RECAP SPECIAL TOWN COUNCIL MEETING – MAY 10TH
Tonight
the Town Council joined the Superintendent and the School Board at Lisbon
Community School to discuss the School Department’s 2016-2017 proposed budgets
and their Capital Improvement Plan. It
was a Public Hearing for residents to speak out about the proposed budget.
At
the Public Hearing, both parent and students spoke out about the Art program
and their teachers being cut as part of the proposal. The majority of speakers only wanted to talk about the Art program and the loss of
the two teachers.
After
everyone had an opportunity to speak, Chairman Bickford thanked the School
Department for its dedicated work on the budget. According to Chairman Bickford, he was
pleased with what the School Department presented. Other Councilors agreed and spoke on how
pleased they were that everyone was working together.
As
far as the Capital Improvement Plan, there was only one resident that asked a
question and Superintendent Green answered it.

TOWN BUDGET
I never thought I would say this but I am disappointed in the new members of the town council.
Seems like it did not take them long to join the 'good old boy's club' and green light everything
on the towns', Ryan Leighton and Brooks', want list.
Just to let you know. I will be voting NO, TOO LOW on the school budget in June.
When school scores are published and Lisbon scores are low, you are so ready to blame
Mr.. Green and the school committee. You are running the schools by setting school budget
ultimatums, yet the sky's the limit on the town budget.
