Our Harbor is an integral part of the town's economy and character. According to the Coastal Waters and Harbor Ordinance, "our Harbor Committee shall 'advise in the custody, care, and management of the Harbor and its facilities, and the Coastal Waters, not inconsistent with the duties of the Harbor Master as set forth in the Ordinance or by the Maine Revised Statutes.' In administering the Ordinance and making recommendations based on the Ordinance, the Harbor Master and Harbor Committee are there to help protect water dependent activity and public access to the water. This, in turn, ensures that the Harbor remains a working harbor."
