The Midcoast Youth Center, a Bath nonprofit serving local students, is asking the city council to reconsider its annual funding allotment after councilors slashed the city’s contribution from $30,000 last year to $3,000.
Midcoast Youth Center Founder Jamie Dorr said while the city’s $30,000 contribution is a small piece of the nonprofit’s $479,000 annual budget, it covers the organization’s operations bill, including paying for electricity, internet, trash removal and some food and materials the center offers students for free.
