Okay all you green thumbs, time to get planting! Come on down to the plant sale to give some plants, get some plants, and make some friends. Locally grown shrubs, trees, perennials, and veggies just in time for your gardens. Plus gardening tools, pots, books, a seed swap, and refreshments! Donations gladly accepted ahead of time by calling or emailing Mary Denzer at (207) 319-5005, mdenzer13@gmail.com. 

The polls will be open from 2:00 PM - 8:00 PM to elect the positions of Select Board Member 1 and Road Commissioner, and vote on the RSU #12 budget. Sample ballots and other information can be viewed here. 

Absentee voting is available now through Thursday, 6/5/25. Voters can vote in person at the Town Office on 6 Fowles Point Rd. during regular business hours, or fill out an absentee ballot application to take a ballot with them or have one delivered. Please see the Notice of Election for details. 

Mark your calendars for our annual exercise in local democracy! Town Meeting is the legislative body of the town, and sets the budget for the next fiscal year, as well as considers ordinance amendments and other matters that determine how Westport Island moves into the future. The draft warrant, draft budget numbers, and other information is available here.  If you need any accessibility accommodations, please let us know ahead of time by emailing townclerk@westportisland.gov. There will be a wheelchair accessible porta potty available. 

Closets overflowing? Barn full of stuff? One person's trash is another person's treasure, so sign on up for the yard sale by emailing Sandy Besecker at sandybee2@gmail.com or Debbie Lorenson at dclorenson@aol.com and share the wealth! The WCA will be doing lots of advertising to entice both islanders and off-islanders to shop the whole island. It's a fun day for all!
