Southwest Harbor navigates staff changes
SOUTHWEST HARBOR There have been a lot of changes at the Southwest Harbor Town Office in the last couple of months that are expected to continue for the foreseeable future.
Currently, town officials are in the process of figuring out how to conduct a search for a permanent town manager and a police chief. Since the removal of Town Manager Justin VanDongen at the Jan. 26 Board of Selectmen’s meeting, Dana Reed has agreed to be the interim town manager until a permanent replacement is hired.

A few people have recently pointed out that 4 p.m. is still part of the workday for some people who might otherwise like to “attend” the virtual meetings. So, on Monday, the board voted to switch the meeting time back of 6:30 p.m. as of Dec. 21.
