Most Bridgton residents know that a new Sign Ordinance went into effect on June 11, 2019 -but you may not be aware of some of the changes. It is important to review the ordinance to ensure you are not in violation.
In early Spring, Code Enforcement will be notifying those not in compliance and requiring removal. Take a moment now and ensure you are adhering to regulations.
Please contact Brenda Day, Code Enforcement Officer or Kari Downs, Administrative Assistant with any questions.
Thank you!

Starting on October 1, 2017, Highland Lake’s water level will be lowered temporarily so lakefront property owners can perform dock repairs, place rip rap, clean the exposed lake bottom along the shoreline, and perform other waterfront improvements.
Lakefront property owners should take actions necessary to protect their personal property. This includes, but is not limited to, adjusting pontoon retaining lines and properly securing or removing boats, canoes and kayaks.
Owners planning improvements to their docks or shorelines are advised to consult D.E.P and Robert Baker, Code Enforcement Officer for allowed improvements or permits required prior to doing so.
If you have any questions regarding which improvements require approval, contact Robert Baker at ceo@bridgtonmaine.org or call (207) 803-9952.
