Town of Harpswell

After Harpswell voters approved a new comprehensive plan in November 2025, the town submitted its plan for state approval. The state notified the town that the plan needed minor changes before it could be deemed complete and consistent with Maine's Growth Management Act. These changes included updating older data and clarifying the town's request for an exemption from designating growth areas.

Data collection for the town's real estate revaluation is 64% complete. Data collectors already have visited Harpswell Neck, Bailey Island, and Orr's Island. Homeowners in those areas who have not had interior inspections will receive a letter from Vision Government Solutions requesting an appointment.
