Machiasport Selectboard OKs Hunting on Town-Owned Land, Urges Hunter Safety

By Paul Sylvain

Following perhaps the most spirited and at times emotionally charged discussion of the evening, the Machiasport selectboard unanimously voted at its Sept. 30 meeting to allow hunting on all town-owned property, to include a blanket permission for hunters to use trail cameras and tree stands. 

Machiasport owns several pieces of land throughout the town, including a 27-acre lot and a separate-but-adjacent 47-acre lot behind the town office and future town garage site.
