Why are Orono Taxpayers paying a Whopping 7X More for LESS Fire Service?
Orono Residents!
How much are you willing to pay per call for Orono Fire Service?
Why does it cost 7X more? For only 1/3 of Orono serviced? Without a boat?
Why aren't the Citizens aware of the tens of millions that Mayor Walsh is spending on service that doesn't have the same coverage as last year?
Stop this apparent inefficient and expensive undertaking and let's get back to what is most important - SAFETY.
Fire Forum: Long Lake Fire Service Updates
In case you missed the Long Lake Fire Services Forum, here is the link to the video. Note that as announced publicly at the previous Orono City Council meeting, Council member Alisa Benson did attend the event. Orono Council members #mariaveach and #richardcrosby showed up and apparently broke open meeting law again by creating a quorum (3 members of council). For more about some of the public comments, see our Youtube page at Friends of Orono.

Why would Mayor Walsh Make up a Quote for Rep. Andrew Myers?
With numerous lawsuits pending and many misstatements in his own Orono Happenings Newsletter, perhaps Mayor Walsh needs a fact checker to correct his mistruths.
Citizens Speak Out at 1/8/24 Orono City Council Meeting
Krista goes on to make another great point - why belittle the LLFD, and then hire their Chief and several of their Firefighters? This form of double talk to the Citizens of Orono is insulting given the vast expense that Orono taxpayers will be footing for this unnecessary fire department - millions of dollars yet to be finalized and explained in a public manner
Divided We Fall
More than ever, the Citizens of Orono need to Unite together to bring positive change to our fair city. We need a citywide scientific survey of all citizens as it is required in our own Comprehensive Improvement Plan (CIP). The last time the citizens were surveyed was 2008.
