On Thursday, January 4th, 2024, beginning at 6:00 p.m. at the Bridgton Town Office, 10 Iredale Street, Bridgton, Maine, there will be a NIMS Training for the Select Board which may also include support staff. Although there will be a quorum of members present representing the Board, no official business will be conducted.
Mailboxes and mailbox supports are the property of the mail route patron. The Town does not issue written permits for the placement of mailboxes within the road right-of way and is placed there at the owner’s risk. Our Highway Department uses care and consideration when plowing snow in their vicinity. Despite this, some mailboxes will be damaged during the snow removal season. In the vast majority of cases, it is the weight of snow from the snowplow which damages a mailbox. Please refer to the below mailbox guide from MaineDOT.
◊ As previously published on this page, just a reminder that from November 20th to April 15th, no vehicle shall be parked on the public street or way, from 11pm to 7am, per the Bridgton Traffic Ordinance.
◊ As per MRSA 17A Section 505 and MRSA 29A Section 2396, no person(s) shall plow, shovel, or otherwise deposit snow, into the limits of any traveled public way.
◊ It is important to keep your driveways and private roads cleared and sanded, so that if the need arises, emergency personnel can safely access your property.
◊ Regarding weather events … please be aware that we post information on the Town’s Facebook page, the Town’s website, and all of the local television channels are notified, if and when, the Town Office is closed.
