From the meeting
At its October 26, 2026 workshop the Select Board met with Tibbetts Law and Bernstein Shur on a Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District framework for the proposed Walden Renewables solar project. The attorneys explained how TIF districts can capture new assessed value, use new tax revenue for renewable energy projects in Maine, and fund other eligible municipal projects. The board used the session to learn the structure of developer agreements and discuss next steps toward a mutually beneficial package.
No decision was recorded at the workshop.
