THE TOWN IS REQUIRED BY THE STATE TO HAVE A CURRENT APPLICATION ON FILE FOR EVERY PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTION APPLIED, SO THE EXEMPTION CAN BE AUDITED AND VERIFIED BY MAINE REVENUE SERVICES.
BALDWIN'S ASSESSING AGENT, CUMBERLAND COUNTY REGIONAL ASSESSING, WILL BE SENDING OUT LETTERS TO THOSE RECEIVING EXEMPTIONS WITH MISSING APPLICATIONS ON FILE. THE ASSESSING AGENT, ON BEHALF OF THE TOWN, IS REQUIRED TO REMOVE THE EXEMPTION FROM THE NEXT TAX COMMITMENT IF THE OWNER DOES NOT RETURN A NEW APPLICATION. IT IS OUR UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS PRIMARILY IMPACTS THOSE WITH MISSING HOMESTEAD AND VETERAN EXEMPTION APPLICATIONS.

Notice to Baldwin Residents
The Baldwin Select Board is seeking two residents to serve as our community’s representatives on the Saco River Corridor Commission. Baldwin has a history of leadership on the SRCC. The Saco River Corridor Commission serves 20 municipalities. Each town is represented by a regular and alternate member. Membership is as diverse as the communities served and represents a cross-section of valley life and values.
Serving without compensation for their time, efforts, or expenses, the commissioners are constant proof that land use controls can be effectively and sensibly administered at a regional level by area residents. Members and alternates are appointed by their respective town officials.
Members are appointed to serve a three-year term. Regular members have full voting and participatory rights in all proceedings of the full commission and its committees. Alternate members are allowed to participate in all proceedings of the full commission but may only vote in the absence of the regular member. Both regular and alternate members may serve on subcommittees.
You can learn more about the SRCC at www.srcc-maine.org
Call Robyn Anderson at 207-625-9107 if you are interested in applying.
Thank you for your interest,
Sincerely,
Baldwin Select Board
