  • Legislative Update House and Senate Committee Assignments
    LEGISLATIVE UPDATE HOUSE AND SENATE COM MITTEE ASSIGNMENTS Today joint standing committee assignments for the 128th Legislature were made public by the presiding officers of the Maine House of Representatives and the State Senate. Despite sitting in the minority in the House of Representatives, House Republicans will outsize Democrats on the Inland Fisheries & Wildlife Committee and Marine Resources Committee, and will have parity on the Agriculture, Conservation & Forestry Committee, Insurance & Financial Resources Committee, and the Veterans & Legal Affairs Committee. Governor LePage will be submitting his final biennial budget in early 2017 and it promises to include a number of provisions that will lock Democrats and Republicans into a prolonged period of review, line-item editing, and deal making. The all-important and uber-powerful Appropriations & Financial Affairs Committee will steer the direction of the budget following a vetting and review from each policy committee. Sen. Jim Hamper (R-Oxford) will return as AFA Senate Chair and will also be joined by long-time committee member Sen. Roger Katz (R-Kennebec). In fact, the Republican compliment on the committee will be unchanged from the prior session save for one member, whereas Democrats return with familiar faces and new leaders. Rep. Drew Gattine (D-Westbrook) has left the Health & Human Services Committee to now chair Appropriations and Sen. Cathy Breen (D-Cumberland) will take the one seat allocated to her caucus. However, longtime member and Augusta power broker Rep. John Martin (D- Eagle Lake) will again join the powerful budget writing committee. Please see the following for lists of committee membership. Agriculture, Conservation & Forestry Environment and Natural Resources Sen.

    Maine AFL-CIO 2018 Working Families Legislative Scorecard Phone: 207-622-9675 • Fax: 207-622-9685 Maine AFL-CIO • 21 Gabriel Drive • Augusta, ME 04330 www.maineaflcio.org • email: [email protected] Ranking Our Legislators’ Commitment to Workers’ Rights and An Economy That Works for All 2018 Labor Lobby Day in Augusta The 128th Maine Legislature was set in a period of staggering inequality, stagnant wages and declining living standards. As working people, we look for the Legislature to: • reflect our core values of fairness, solidarity and economic justice; • do everything within its power to support workers and their families; • and take proactive measures to create a just economy. The Maine AFL-CIO is a statewide federation of more than 160 local labor unions in Maine. We represent more than 40,000 Maine workers and retirees delivering public services or working at paper mills, shipyards, hospitals, construction sites, utilities, and in manyother industries. We represent these workers and their families at the Legislature, and we organize 2018 Maine AFL-CIO COPE Convention together year round for workers’ rights and economic justice. This legislative scorecard seeks to capture the votes that were of the greatest importance to working people in the second session of the 128th Maine Legislature (2018). It provides information on those bills and lets you know how your legislators voted. Our Legislative Committee and Executive Board carefully reviewed all the bills that came before the State Legislature and selected which bills to work on and to score. We hope you find the scorecard useful and that you will use it to hold your state legislators accountable.

  • Town of Oakland, Maine 2019 Annual Report
    Summer Concert Series Town of Oakland, Maine Oakland Waterfront Park 2019 Annual Report 2019 Oakland Town Report Dedication RICHARD “Dick” PIERCE May 14, 1930 – October 13, 2019 It is with great respect we dedicate the 2019 Town Report to Richard “Dick” Pierce. Dick believed strongly that everyone had an obligation to serve its community and serve is exactly what he did. From the early days of coaching youth sports to later stints with both the Oakland Planning Board and Town Council, Dick was well versed in all town affairs. Later in life, Dick even spent some time working for the Town of Oakland, at our recycling station, retiring at the age of 87. With the exception of his family, the Oakland Lions Club was his true passion. Dick faithfully served the Lions for nearly 60 years, holding every club position possible at one time or another and in fact, went over 50 years without ever missing a meeting! One of his greatest duties within the Lions Club was serving as the chairperson of the annual Children’s Ice Fishing Frenzy from 1990 until his health would no longer allow. Thank you Mr. Pierce, for making Oakland a better place for all of us to live! 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS DEDICATION 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS 2 TOWN GOVERNMENT PERSONNEL 3 REFERENCE NUMBERS 8 TOWN COUNCIL REPORT 10 TOWN MANAGER REPORT 11 IMPORTANT GOVERNMENT CONTACTS 14 CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICER REPORT 15 PLANNING BOARD 16 ASSESSOR'S REPORT 17 TOWN CLERK'S REPORT 19 POLICE DEPARTMENT REPORT 20 FIRE/RESCUE REPORT 21 HEALTH OFFICER REPORT 23 HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT REPORT 24 ENVIRONMENTAL

Flynn Secretary of State Deputy Secretary of State Introduction As Secretary of State, I am pleased to publish the 2021 edition of the Boards and Commissions Vacancy Report for Maine. This report lists appointments or reappointments that have not been made from previous years through December 31, 2020, and where vacancies exist on a board or commission that need an appointment. The Boards and Commissions listed in this document are charged with jobs and responsibilities as varied as the work of State Government itself. Members of these boards and commissions often perform the critical role in our democracy of informing the public and elected officials about important and complex issues. Many dedicated citizens provide invaluable service to Maine through their work on boards and commissions. As always, the Department of the Secretary of State is ready to assist you with any questions about this publication. If you would like additional information, please contact Cathy Beaudoin in the Bureau of Corporations, Elections and Commissions at (207) 624-7748 or by mail at 101 State House Station, Augusta, ME 04333-0101.
