New Summer Hours

I would like to announce that starting May 1 the front office will be open from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays. This is a trial basis for SUMMER HOURS of operation. I am a salary position, so this will not be an added expense to the town in any way. I am trying these hours for the residents of New Portland as an added convenience for those in need of better times to conduct business at the Town Office. Thursdays office hours will still be2:00 pm to 7:00 pm as well as the first Saturday of the month from 8:00 am to 12:00 noon (except holiday weekends).

This trial basis will be May 1 through August 31.

Respectfully submitted by Stacie Rundlett, Town Manager
