Could the former Blueberry Ford at 241 Dublin St./Route 1 become the future home for a new Machias Municipal and Public Safety Complex?

That suggestion was floated by Bold Coast Properties real estate broker Bill Milliken at the Aug. 13 selectboard meeting. While openly receptive to the idea, town officials cautiously agreed that the first step in the process is for department heads to tour the facility, then meet and discuss whether or not investing in that property will meet their department’s and the town’s needs.
