DIGGING IT – Construction of the Dexter Utility District’s new water main line continues on Church and Spring streets. Crews finished this segment by the post office last week.

Dexter water mains should be ‘substantially complete’ by mid-June
by Mike Lange
DEXTER – The $2.13 million
construction project to replace
about 6,900 linear feet of water
main pipe on Spring and Church
streets in Dexter should be “substantially complete” by mid-June,
according to Dexter Utility District superintendent Jeff Wiers.
“We should be back to normal
soon after that. The lines should
be in and connected,” Wiers said.
“There will be some clean-up and
lawn and sidewalk work afterwards, but the major construction
should be finished.”
One glitch that almost hampered the progress is the town’s
shoreland zoning ordinance that
prohibits excavating work within
a certain distance of a lake or
stream between Nov.1 and May

The code enforcement officer
added that Memorial Day is coming up in a few weeks “and if we
had to delay the construction,
traffic would be clogged up right
by the Exxon station (on Church
Street).”
Wiers said the mild weather
has helped everyone stay on target. “As long as we don’t get any
unexpected spring rains, we’re
good to go,” he said.
Wiers also said that plans
for the Maine DOT to resurface
Route 7 through Dexter have
been moved to the 2017 work
plan. “Our engineers been told
15. Little Wassookeag Lake falls
within the 250-foot setback at
Dam Street.
But Code Enforcement Officer
Al Tempesta met with Wiers and
the contractors Friday and said
that construction could proceed.
“They’re all certified in erosion
control and the project is an essential service to the community,”
Tempesta said. “This serves everyone, not just one particular
business.”
Tempesta said he discussed the
issue with Town Manager Shelley
Watson “and she agreed that the
project should move forward.”
that the job won’t go out to bid
until next April,” he said. “We assume it’s going to be done some
time, but we just don’t know the
time frame.”
Tempesta said he was also disappointed with the MDOT decision. “They’re just prolonging the
pain,” he said.
The USDA Rural Development
Agency is picking up 42 percent of
the cost of the water main project
and the Dexter Utility District is
financing the rest of it with a 40year loan at an interest rate of
2.75 percent.
Veto of jail funding threatens taxpayers, supporters say
AUGUSTA – Several lawmakers have criticized Gov. Paul LePage’s veto of a bill to provide extra funding for county jails during the next year.
The Legislature will reconvene this week to consider overriding some of the governor’s vetoes including
rejection of the jail funding bill (LD 1214).
“Lawmakers have been working hard with sheriffs and other county officials on this bipartisan solution,” said Rep. Jeff McCabe (D-Skowhegan), the House Majority Leader. “In communities like mine in
Somerset County, property taxpayers are already being squeezed by inadequate school funding and sharp
drops in mill valuations.”
As amended, the legislation provides an extra $2.4 million during the next fiscal year for Maine’s county
and regional jails.
The bill was sponsored by Sen. Kim Rosen (R-Hancock) and went through several procedural moves
before being enacted “under the hammer” in the Senate or by unanimous consent
The bill passed the House by a vote of 115-32, more than the two-thirds margin needed to override a

MILO – Last summer, the Milo Police Department became the first law enforcement agency in Piscataquis County to have naloxone on hand, a medication that temporarily reverses the effects of an opioid
overdose and restores breathing Police Chief Damien Pickel, who is also Milo’s town manager, credited
the drug with saving at least three lives over a short period of time.
So Pickel said he was angry and upset last week when Gov. Paul LePage vetoed a bill passed by the
Legislature that would have allowed naloxone – also known by its brand name Narcan – to be available
as an over-the-counter medication.
The governor said in his veto message that naloxone “does not truly save lives. It merely extends them
until the next overdose.”
LePage added, “Creating a situation where a heroin addict has a needle in one hand and a shot of naloxone in the other produces a sense of normalcy and security around heroin that serves only to perpetuate
the cycle of addiction.”
“The governor has no idea how to address the addiction and drug issue in the state of Maine,” Pickel
said. “Anyone who believes that Narcan is just an addict’s safety net is cynical.”
Pickel posted an open letter to LePage on the Milo Police Department’s Facebook page, stating that by
denying that Narcan saves lives, “You are being disingenuous and are doing a disservice to those of us who
have administered it. It does save lives. It’s not a safety net for the addict that will ‘perpetuate the use of
heroin.’ When an addict is overdosing, they lack the skills to administer it themselves.”
The police chief suggested that the governor “listen to your police, fire, EMS and medical professionals
before you make any further uninformed statements.”
Pickel said that he might “get some flak” for the post, but he stands by it. “If the governor wants to be
a part of the solution, he should fund treatment and outpatient centers in towns like Milo. We are the
forgotten part of Maine.”
There were 17 people who testified during a committee hearing on the bill (LD 1547) and all

Veto of Jail from Page 1
gubernatorial veto. Rep. Norman Higgins (R-Dover-Foxcroft) and Rep. Paul Stearns (R-Guilford) voted in
favor of the bill while Rep. Ray Wallace (R-Dexter) opposed it.
LePage, in his veto message, pointed out that county funding for operation of jails is currently capped.
“If counties spend above the cap, which they invariably do, then the state is asked to provide supplemental
funding to cover the different,” he wrote. “For too long, state taxpayers have had to pick up the tab for the
cost of the county jails because, due to the cap, there is no incentive for counties to rein in jail spending.”
The governor indicated that if the bill had a provision to eliminate the cap on county funding, he might
not have vetoed it.
The Piscataquis County jail budget has been capped by the state at $878,940 this year, but the actual
cost of operating it is over $1.4 million, according to County Manager Tom Lizotte.
Supporters of the legislation say that there are many reasons why the cap doesn’t work including unexpected expenses for prisoners with extensive health needs and increased cost of facilities maintenance.
Rep. Lori Fowle (D-Vassalboro), the House chair of the Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee,
accused LePage of “suggesting that the Legislature should impose a tax shift on to local communities. We,
as a committee and as the representatives of those communities, rejected that. I’m urging my colleagues
to stand behind this bipartisan solution and override the governor’s veto next week.”

Krazy Jake Comedy Show to benefit Trafton fire fund
by Mike Lange
DEXTER — One of New England’s fastest-rising comedy stars will host a show at Dexter Regional High
School on Friday, May 6 to assist a Dexter dairy farmer who lost his home, barn and milking equipment
to a fire earlier this year.
“Krazy Jake” Hodgdon’s show is named “’Till the Cows Come Home” – and it’s an appropriate title for
the fundraiser.
Kenny Trafton lost nearly half of his 80-cow dairy herd in the March fire and the surviving animals are
being cared for at Dennis Blaine’s farm, a mile-and-a-half away from their home.
“Things are picking up for us,” Trafton said. “We had an excavator come in to do some clearing over
the weekend. Hopefully by the end of the week, we’ll be able to set the footing and gravel for the milking
parlor.”
Mud season hampered Trafton’s cleanup and rebuilding efforts for a while, but he said that the road is
much better now. “There are no soft spots,” he said. “The truck loop is 100 percent hard right now.”
Trafton’s goal is to get the milking parlor finished by June 1. “Then we can turn them out on green
grass,” he said. “We want them home by then.”
The Krazy Jake Comedy Show is expected to give a nice boost to ongoing community efforts to assist
Trafton.
Hodgdon currently stars in the
Animal Planet TV show “Yankee
Jungle” and has made over 400

Maine Highlands FCU
celebrates 50th anniversary
by Diane Parola
DEXTER - Since 1966, Maine
Highlands Federal Credit Union
has been proudly serving its
members.
From its humble
beginnings in a shoebox at Dexter
Shoe Factory to its current
status with five locations and
over $100 million in asset size,
Maine Highlands FCU will be
celebrating its 50th anniversary
all year long.
The year began on April 18,
2016 at the credit union’s annual
meeting. This year, to get back
to its roots, Maine Highlands
FCU’s annual meeting was
held at Factory One which is
housed in the former Dexter
Shoe Factory #1. Credit Union
Board
Chairperson,
Linda
Dulac welcomed approximately
200 guests in attendance and
reported on how much growth the
credit union has seen in just the
last year with a 6.80% increase in
asset size. It’s 11,700 members
now have access to many
technology services including a
new internet banking platform,
bill pay, mobile banking, remote
check deposit, as well as EMV
chip debit and credit cards.
Supervisory
Committee
Chairperson, Tammy Lovejoy,
reported on the safety and
soundness of the credit union
‘feeling confident that Maine
Highlands FCU is taking all the
appropriate steps to improve and
strengthen its operations’.
President and CEO, Rhonda
Taylor reported on all the changes
that have taken place in the her
last 30 years of employment
at the Credit Union; from
handwritten receipts, to giant
computers, adding machine tapes,
Sonia Cianchette, MCN, MCL • 341-0191
438 Exeter Rd., Corinna • Open M-F 8-5, Sun 8 -4
fax machines, internet, email,
and all the technology changes
throughout the years.
Now
having to deal with fraudsters
and hackers is an everyday
concern and the amount of cyber
security protection needed to
keep members funds secure.
The evening was also dedicated
to those fifty-plus members who
opened their accounts during the
credit union’s first year (1966)
and still hold those accounts
today. More than twenty of those
members were in attendance.
State Representatives, Paul
Stearns, Norm Higgins, and
Senator Paul Davis were in
attendance and presented the
Credit Union with a Legislative
Sentiment. A buffet dinner was
served by Perley’s Catering and
all members took home a nice
gift.
Maine
Highlands
FCU
will continue it’s 50 year
celebration in May with a Road
Trip Scavenger Hunt; in June
employees will serve ‘Breakfast
by the Bridge’ in Guilford
during Guilford’s Bicentennial
Celebration; July will be a free
bicycle drawing at each office; in
August Maine Highlands FCU is
a major sponsor of Dexter’s 2016
Red Hot Dog Festival; September
will be ‘Monty Moose Madness’
month; October will include a
Harvest Fair in Dover-Foxcroft;
in November the Credit Union
will be having a ‘Choose Your
Fuel’ Giveaway; December will
be a surprise; in January 2017
the Credit Union will be hosting
‘Community Movie/Fun Day’ in
Brownville; in February 2017
there will be a free ski day at
Squaw Mountain in Greenville;
and March 2017 will be dedicated
to Dexter Shoes.
MHFCU RECOGNIZED - State Representatives, Paul Stearns, Norm
Higgins, and Senator Paul Davis were in attendance and presented
the Credit Union with a Legislative Sentiment to recognize their 50th
Anniversary.

tive,” she said.
The bill passed in the Senate 25-8 and in the House by a margin of 98-49.
Rep. Norman Higgins (R-Dover-Foxcroft) and Rep. Paul Stearns (R-Guilford) voted in favor of the bill
while Sen. Paul Davis (R-Sangerville) and Rep. Ray Wallace (R-Dexter) opposed it.
The Legislature is expected to revisit several bills vetoed by the governor, including this one.

Energy Efficient
Space Heaters
Enjoy comfortable heat anywhere all winter long. Rinnai heaters are efficient and easy to
install. And the innovative cool-to-the-touch cabinet makes it safe for the whole family.
Rinnai’s ductless heaters are among the quietest operating on the market. Efficient fans
offer exceptional air flow at very low decibels, a little louder than a whisper (31-47 dBA).
