Letters

From Liza Adams Thompson: In light of recent revelations in the Epstein files about the relationship between George Mitchell and the notorious pedophile and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, the Harpswell community may want to consider renaming Mitchell Field.

From Warner W. Price: Although I am a member of the Mitchell Field Committee, I am writing strictly as a private citizen in regard to renaming Mitchell Field.

From Liz Taylor: I love reading, books and libraries. However, I think it's time for Harpswell to stop appropriating money so anyone in Harpswell can get a free library card at Curtis Memorial Library, as it's not a good use of tax dollars.

From Phil Taylor: Vote yes on Article 4 to have the town enter into a management agreement with the state to steward the Clark Cove property, which is currently controlled by the state.

Vote yes to protect Clark Cove. The parcel being discussed is state-owned land on Allen Point Road that is open for public use now! Why is it assumed use will drastically increase, followed by abuse and damage to surrounding properties, if the town manages the property?

From Jamie Hark: My name is Jamie Hark and I am writing in support of the town's initiative to maintain and provide access to the state's Clark Cove property.

From Geoff Feiss: The Clark Cove property off Allen Point Road has been owned by the state for more than 50 years for the express purpose of providing recreational opportunities to Mainers. Now, the state and the town are proposing to enter into a management agreement to ensure this 18-acre parcel of shorefront land is better used for the benefit of residents and visitors.

By Nola Denslow: On Allen Point Road, there is a public, state-owned parcel of land with a small, pebbly beach and beautiful views. For many years, the owners of the properties surrounding this land have used it exclusively. They want to keep it that way.

From Kathy Hirst: I am writing to encourage Harpswell residents to vote for Ellen Glew to fill the Select Board position. She brings to Harpswell a history and spirit of community involvement — and more.

From Nelson Barter: I am writing to endorse Kevin Johnson for reelection to the Select Board.
