From the meeting
At its October 21, 2026 meeting the town reported that Evans Smith, LLC and town administration had kicked off the state-funded Community Vulnerability Assessment (CVA). The assessment is intended to identify local infrastructure and community risks and prepare Fort Fairfield to compete for Maine Community Action Grants in Spring 2027. The memo also said a Maine Career Exploration Program student had been hired at zero added cost to help with data compilation, baseline research, and public outreach logistics.
Decision state: informational update, no council action requested.
