Paving -- Postponed!
The State has told us Main Street and the other paving projects that were to begin next week will be postponed until May 2020. The State's contractor is behind schedule on Vinalhaven due to challenges in getting hot asphalt to the island. For that reason, the State is unable to work on North Haven before air temperatures cool to the point where paving is not practical. So we will have to wait until next spring for this work to be done.
Emergency Services
In case of emergency, please dial 911. North Haven participates in the Knox County Emergency Management System. Upon calling, a 911 operator will take your information and immediately contact North Haven's EMS and Fire Department, as appropriate.

Request for Proposals -- Town Office Roof
Description: This is a request for proposals to replace the Town Office Roof. The roof is currently shingled with asphalt shingles. The Town would consider proposals for both new asphalt shingles and for a metal roof. In addition, the work would include removing and replacing the gutters, repairing and painting the soffits and fascia boards, and performing other associated work as needed to ensure the roof and associated structures are free from rot. The Town should expect the materials and workmanship used to replace the roof to last at least 20 years.
Proposals Due: Submit proposals to the Town Office. You may deliver your proposal in person to the Town Office or send it via email to Rick Lattimer, town administrator, at [email protected] Proposals will be evaluated at the end of each calendar month until an acceptable proposal is received.
Performance Period: Negotiable.
