February 1, 2025 Town Newsletter

The days may be colder this time of year, but planning for community projects, council goals, and the budget is just warming up! Many of the stories below show examples of collaboration—what can be accomplished when departments, Town Council, and external organizations work together with public input and involvement. Some of these efforts address immediate needs, like the upcoming fuel rally to keep our neighbors warm. Others are a forward-thinking, multi-step process with several stakeholders, like the school building project. Read on for details of what's ahead and how you can be involved.

Prioritizing Our Priorities...Again

By April Sither, Scarborough Town Council 

The Council held a productive goal setting meeting on Saturday, January 25th. The meeting, unlike most (if not all) of our other meetings, was not livestreamed or recorded, which we took a little flack for on social media. Candidly, we work week after week, on camera, in some pretty high pressure situations. At goal setting we dressed casually, moved around the room freely, ate snacks, and joked as colleagues do. It was good for our council dynamics, and I appreciated the relaxed setting to do some really great work, and eat cookies without my kids knowing exactly how many.
