CRUISE

Maine— CRUISEMAINEORO —

Cruise Restart in Maineh b

Frequently Asked QuestionsLast Updated: May 3, 2021

Which cruise ships are currently permitted to conduct passenger operations inMaine?At present, only American Cruise Lines has permission to operate in Maine in 2021. The 96-passengerIndependence will begin in its homeport of Portland on May 22 and the 175-passenger AmericanConstitution will arrive in Portland on June 14 after departing from Boston. Both vessels will begin at 75%or less capacity, though that number may increase as the season goes on.

Because larger ships are still months from resuming operations, Maine has not yet needed to considerwhether to permit their operations this year. Note that federal CDC requires cruise operators to have awritten agreement with each port on a proposed itinerary before they can even apply to CDC forthe “conditional sailing permit” required to operate that itinerary. This requirement means that eachMaine port where these larger ships have visited in the past will have plenty of time to consider if it wantsthem this year, and if so, how many and how often. At this time, it is unclear if conditional sailing permitswill be required beyond November 2021 when the CDC’s Framework for Conditional Sailing Orderexpires.

Will the state be providing any additional requirements or checklists that the ports mustcomply with before the American Cruise Lines ships arrive?No. American Cruise Lines has submitted a plan to Maine CDC that meets — and in many cases exceeds— Maine’s public health requirements for visitors. The robust testing of everyone on board, the mandatoryvaccinations for all passengers, along with multiple other protocols around sanitation and contact tracing,means these passengers are permitted to move about freely and intermingle with other locals andvisitors, provided they follow mask and social distancing mandates. In ports where American CruiseLines uses a publicly owned dock!pier, there is no state requirement to separate ACL passengersand crew from other users of the dock, like staff, local residents or transient boaters.

In addition, unlike most sectors for which the state has independently developed and distributedchecklists for reopening, the process has worked differently for cruise tourism. Through their participationin the CruiseMaine ReStart Task Force, Maine’s ports have participated in developing a set of shoresideprotocols for their individual location. As part of Maine Office of Tourism/DECD, CruiseMaine hasconsulted Maine CDC throughout the process of developing both the preventive protocols and theemergency response plans for each port.

These final few weeks before the ships arrive will be used to finalize all port plans and get sign off fromevery entity or organization who will be participating in the protocols, e.g., tour operators, or who could becalled upon to participate in the emergency response plan, e.g., hospitals and emergency transportservices.

Are the town or city governments in each cruise port required to also vote on allowingAmerican Cruise Lines to come?No, but if a municipal government would like to hold its own discussions or votes, they may. Weencourage all formal discussions or official votes to include a representative from American Cruise Lines,so they can provide answers to factual questions. CruiseMaine is also happy to attend to share details onthe statewide protocols or the methodology used for developing them, which included the assistance of

Deputy Town Clerk Jackie Hunt has begun scheduling election clerks for the June 8, 2021 election.This will be a relatively small election, as residents will only be voting on the RSU 25 budget. Historically,voter turnout for these elections are minimal. Our last stand-alone budget validation election in 2019,for instance, drew 91 voters to the polls. In the event that there are no other local or state elections inJune, the municipality bills the RSU the cost of facilitating the election.

The RSU 25 District Budget Meeting will be held on Tuesday, May 25, at 7:00 p.m. in the PerformingArts Center of the Bucksport Middle School.

On April 19, Mayor Stewart and I issued the Boston Post Cane to Bucksport’s oldest resident, RuthBunt. Ms. Bunt was very appreciative of the ceremony, and articles were featured about her in TheBucksport Enterprise as well as The Ellsworth American.

Town Council meetings were held on April 1st April April 1 5th and April 22nd all of which I attendedand transcribed the minutes for.

I worked with Code Enforcement, Fire, and Police in processing the following business licenses:

TOWN OF BUCKSPORTCODE ENFORCEMENT/PLANNING OFFICE

REPORTAPRIL 2021

PERMITS ISSUEDI permitted the following: 6 new homes, 2 new garages, 1 additions, 2 renovation, 3 accessory structure, I deck, I treecutting in the shoreland zone, and 2 seasonal docks.

6 internal plumbing permit were issued, 2 complete new septic system and 1 replacement septic tank.

ADDRESSING ACTIVITY:I assigned two new address and entered into the 911 addressing program.

BOARD OF APPEALS ACTIVITY:The board of appeals did not meet in April.Ten Doty has joined the board, but there remains one open seat on the Board of Appeals.

PLANNING BOARD ACTIVITY:The planning met on April 6 for the first review of the contract zone application for Ameresco’s proposed solar farm.The board seems open to the idea of the contract zone and voted to continue moving forward with it. A publichearing was scheduled for May 4. The board would like to hear from more abutters before the final review.

ENFORCEMENT ACTIVITY

• 1861 State Route 46 —Town has foreclosed on the property and I await further instruction.

• 131 Upper Long Pond Road — No Change• 196 Us Route I — Since the dangerous building hearing I have been actively working to get everyone out of

the facility and making sure no others moved in. There has been one lady attempting to clean some of therooms. An’ other vehicle that is spotted on site has been approached and information requested as to theirbusiness on the property. At this time there has been no work done other than the cleaning. Not one screwhas been turned and not a single repair has been done. The power has been turned back on. Water has beenturned on by the water district, but the facility still is without water beyond the meter because the staff areunsure how to turn it on. I informed the property owner that the condition of room 14 was unsafe andrequired professional cleaning service to come in and make it safe and recover the tenant’s valuable property.The property owner has refused to pay the cost of that work,

• Over 30 more properties have been added to the list of current property violations that need to be dealt with.Bringing the total to well over 50 at this time and there are more being reported every day. I am hopeful that Iwill have more time to deal with all of these once the Spring Fountain situation is resolved.

OTHER ACTIVITY

• Conducted plumbing, building and occupancy inspections, as well as typical office work maintainingrecords, answering calls and emails, meeting with citizens, answering questions.

• The increased volume of real estate transactions has in turn meant many more phone calls and emails fromrealtors, buyers, and sellers. It is perfectly understandable that they would want guidance and information,however it can take up a great deal of time.

• A large increase in questions about living in tiny homes and off the grid living. This can be an issue becausemany want to do the bare minimum. Often the intent is to place a storage shed on a small piece of propertyand live in it. I am almost always told that they do not want to have a septic system or plumbing. Manydon’t even want to put the cabin on a slab. There is no problem with tiny homes when done right, but tinyhomes does not translate to throwing codes out the window.

• I have seen increased deterioration of the waterfront. This is just a result of time, weather, and use. I haveconcern that if we do not put a plan in place to address it soon, it may become much more costly.Maintenance is more efficient than replacement. I would propose the waterfront committee be reinstatedand we look at determining a project list that can then be prioritized. Then an engineering firm could makeplans for the work to be done. This is one of our town’s greatest assets and we need to take care of it.

Assessing Department Report

April 2021

These sporadic 60-ish degree days are what my dreams are made of! I think it will finally be

summer before we know it!

Mapping/GIS

The GIS maps may be live, but our mapping project certainly isn’t complete. In between

inspections and personal property entries I am plugging away at property sketches. We

should also have updated hard copies of the maps after July 1 which will be super helpful for

Luke and Rich as well!

Personal Property

The number of returned Personal Property declarations has definitely increased, which is

keeping me busy! Because the State of Emergency included a deadline extension for

exemption applications, I anticipate declarations to continue to trickle in up until we commit

taxes this year.

Mill SiteThe former Mill Site will see some changes this year. The agreement between Jef and

Bucksport Generation came to an end last year. Bucksport Generation supplied plenty of data

and an appraisal that constitutes a lower valuation for that property. Black Bear LLC, the

subsidiary company of Whole Oceans reached out expressing an interest in filing for an

abatement for map 001 lots 010-002 & 010-003. I sent a request for sale data including

purchase prices and appraisal information, as of now I have yet to hear back on that request

so no changes have been made. They have until May 6th to supply that information.

Cost SchedulesWhile this project won’t be beginning right off, I did want to let you all know that a cost

schedule update project has been added to the assessing radar. There are a few reasons for

this project, first is that real estate sales over the last year have continued to trend quite a bit

higher than the assessments we have. “Chasing sales” isn’t considered best practice, but at

this point the market is showing no signs of slowing and neither is the cost of new

construction. Secondly, it appears that historically cost schedules for commercial properties

were not used. Luckily there was a reval completed relatively recently so we have helpful data

to use when completing those cost schedules.

I think that does it, thank you!

BUCKSPORT PUBLIC SAFETY

I would like to start this month’s report by thanking our Town Manager fordedicating this year’s town report to the Town of Bucksports Public Safety Team.Although we certainly are not in this profession for the recognition it is a very nicegesture towards our public safety team and to know that the town appreciates whatwe do. I will say that I think it was a excellent choice and the ladies and gentlementhat I have working for me and for the town are top notch people!

In the month of April we are looking down that long road and we are startingto see the end of the pandemic. We will however continue on the road we are onuntil it is over and we will reevaluate that way we do business in the field of publicsafety. I do believe that we have learned a lot about the way we do things and thethings that happen or do not happen when we do things a certain way. It will beinteresting to look things over and see what path we take when everything goesback to normal for the rest of the world. We have found that the way that we nowdo business was very safe and we learned that by adding a few features we becameeven safer. We will look forward and time will tell!

Our budgets for the coming year have been completed and presented to thetown council for consideration. We would like to thank the town council for notonly listening to the presentations but asking great questions about the budgets asthey were presented. I believe that through great teamwork we can continue toprovide a service to the citizens of the town that they deserve.

All of our staff continues to do an outstanding job day in and day out!! Iwant to again this month thank each and evety one of them for staying the courseon this roller coaster ride. Keep up the good work and make sure to take care ofyourselves and each other!!

The Police Department is currently in the process of hiring a full timepatrolman to fill a current vacancy that we have. We had 9 resumes for this oneposition and oral boards will start this week.

There were 436 police calls for service this month. I have included a mapwith my report that will show the locations of the calls that were taken that have aphysical address. We had 5 major offenses reported this month, 3 assaults, 2 thefts,0 burglary, 2 cases were cleared.

The Dispatch Center is the heartbeat of the Public Safety operations and thetown overall. Everything starts with this department and the responsibility theyhold is enormous. The dispatch center had 7610 radio log entries this month. Theyworked on 1 concealed weapons permit. There were 70 burn permits issued thismonth online. They continue to complete extra tasks above and beyond the job ofdispatching. These duties include payroll, purchase orders, burn permits, court casework, filing, purchase orders and much more.

The Fire Department Safety Division completed the CASHH safety programlast month. We delivered 189 magnetic signs to each large apartment complex intown. We were met with a lot of positive comments on this program and we are inhopes that this helps out with deterring any items being left on in apartments in thefuture. The safety division also put together and delivered the box numbers toVerona Island last month. These will be handed out by the Verona Island townoffice. This will make it easier for our Fire and Ambulance services to find housenumbers on the island.

The Fire Department and EMS departments continue to be busy. There were102 Ambulance runs and there were 25 fire calls and 3 inspections / businesslicenses this month. We continue to work on filling per diem shifts for theambulance and have presented the idea of adding per diem to the night shift also inthe new budget. We are looking to hire more part time personnel along with thepotential of 3 full time personnel under the SAFER grant that we have applied for.

I have again attached a map for each department with the number of callsthat were taken in this month with a physical address. The Police calls are circles,the Ambulance calls are squares and the Fire calls are triangles. I have also added amap with all calls for public safety along with a new report this month with natureof calls, total specific calls and what percentage of the total calls these calls cover.

I attended several meetings this month, most of them continue to be online.Town Council meeting, YMCA finance committee online, Recreation CIPmeeting, IT Department meeting, Code Enforcement Meeting, Maine ChiefsBoard Meeting, BBHCC Seniors Committee Meeting, YMCA Executive Boardonline, Bucksport Area Child Care Center Board of Directors (online), PublicSafety Department Head weekly meeting (In Person), Full Time Fire staff meeting,Fire Training in person, Ambulance Training (online), Fire Department Captains

Meeting, Police Department supervisors meeting, Town Service NetworkCommittee, Hancock County Hospital Meeting, Technical Services Meeting, LawEnforcement state debrief meeting. All of these are online and are weekly untilfurther notice. The weekly CDC meetings are online eveiy day and we continue tomonitor these.

I will end this month by asking the entire community to keep the course. Wewill continue to get through this and things will get better if we continue to worktogether. We have truly proven what a great community we live in and that whenwe band together during tough times there isn’t anything the Town of Bucksportcan’t get through together. We are here for all of you when you need us, let’s sticktogether as we always do!!

The month of April continued to be busy. We responded to 127 calls for service. Our crewscontinue to be resilient throughout the pandemic. Some highlights for the month include thedelivery of our new rescue truck. Lettering, striping, and radio will be installed in the coming days.This truck replaces the 1994 unit which has come to the end of its useful life expectancy, and will beput out to bid to seH. We responded to a structure fire on the Upper Long Pond Road, which alsospread into the \voods burning about .70 acres of forestry land. Crews did an excellent job incontaining the fire. Wind gusts that day were in the range of 17 mph.

Training has ramped up to full-in-person sessions. It’s certainly nice to get back to some type ofnormalcy in regards to in-person vs. online training. Much work is being completed in-house at thefire station. Heat pumps have been installed on the fire department side. We should see some type

of lowering of hearing/electrical costs in the future.

I would like to thank all department members for their hard work and dedication, and to thank theTown Council and Town Manager for their support throughout the pandemic. We could not dothis without everyone’s support!

TO: Bucksport Town CouncilFROM: Susan Lessard, Town ManagerDATE: Mayll,2021RE: Outside Agency Funding

The purpose of this memo is to outline the outside agency funding requests for the2021-2022 fiscal year and the amount that our current policy allows to come fromproperty tax revenues.

The total property tax revenue amount for the 2020-2021 fiscal year was $7,551,484,which means that 1% of that amount is available for outside agency funded by taxdollars in the 2021-2022 budget, or $75,514.84. There is also an additional $24,000 thatis used from TIE funds toward the cost of outside agencies that are part of theEconomic Development budget, bringing the total available to $99,514.84

The total amount of the requests for this year, including those in the EconomicDevelopment budget, is $127,431 — a difference of $27,916.16. Increases over lastyear’s funding have been requested by the Red Cross ($2,400 more), DowneastCommunity Partners ($27,588 more), WIC ($3,820 more), Community Health &Counseling ($400 more), Downeast Transportation ($1 ,700 more), Bucksport BayHealthy Communities (13,200 more).

I am recommending that the Downeast Community Partners request be reduced to thefunding level from 2021-2022 ($1500), that Community Health & Counseling not befunded since they did not attend ($400), and that WIC and Red Cross funding bereduced to $1,000 each. That would reduce the taxation amount for outside agencies to$70,823 and still fund the agencies that have been most active and whose plans for2021-2022 are primarily local.
