The format and structure for Select Board meetings are authorized and governed by our Town Charter and the Select Board Bylaws with overarching guidance from Maine Statues. Select Board members are not collectively or individually allowed to speak about personnel matters and may only address personnel matters in an executive session per State Statute Title 1 § 401-410.
II. Public Comment - Non-Agenda Item
Comments regarding issues, concerns, commendations, or matters of general public information are welcome. The public is encouraged when commenting or expressing points of view about an individual(s) that they do so in a respectful and constructive manner. Topics relating to personnel matters cannot be acknowledged.
COVID-19 Procedures - Public Communications:
- EMAIL: Individuals may email questions or comments to dwalker@northyarmouth.org or manager@northyarmouth.org.

IV. Any Other Business
Select Board Members: A reminder, the “any other business” section on the agenda is not to include previously discussed items, any formerly “settled items,” personal matters, or Town personnel matters. Please submit your other business item(s) to the Town Manager, Chairman, or Vice Chairman prior to the meeting by email or written letter dropped off at the Town Office. Thank you.
V. Adjournment
REMINDERS THE ATTENDING PUBLIC: Please mute all digital devices; Select Board meetings are open to the public, but the public may not speak unless recognized by the Chairperson first. Workshops: The public is welcome to attend workshops and listen to the discussion that takes place. The purpose of holding a workshop is to provide the Select Board with the opportunity to focus on specific town matters to later present at a regular business meeting. Therefore, public participation is limited to only regular business meetings of the Select Board.
We appreciate your patience and understanding, thank you.

Not sure what to do with your bags? Reuse and recycle them if you can — some select retailers are still collecting plastic bags and films for recycling into new items. If they must be thrown away, rest assured that ecomaine’s waste-to-energy facility turns trash into renewable energy. How cool is that?
Between April 25th and June 6th, Maine's Spring Wild Turkey hunting season will be active.
During the hunting season, we recommend that anyone who is walking in the woods and parks strongly consider wearing blaze orange to help readily identify you when you are in the woods. Outfitting your dog with a blaze orange vest is also an excellent idea. Please be aware that hunters may utilize a variety of turkey calls to try and lure a wild turkey to their location. It is never advisable to go toward the sound of a turkey call to investigate. Be safe when you are out enjoying our town parks!
