Note it!

• Starting this fall, the Fort Kent Landfill will transition to a bin site, offering M.D. residents the ability to drop off their household waste and recycling 24/7.

In addition, the Ardmore Landfill will be open five days a week (Tuesday to Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.), and an automated gate will be installed.

M.D. residents may register for an access card (at no additional charge) to operate the gate. This will ensure access is limited to M.D. residents.

basis. Property owners will have to show proof of insurance in order to reduce the original invoice amount. M.D. property owners who do not have insurance against fire will receive an invoice to recover the full cost of firefighting efforts. In this case, the landowner may appeal to Council for a reduction or cancellation of the invoice.

So how do you know if your insurance policy covers firefighting costs?

M.D. ratepayers should talk to their insurance brokers about their fire coverage — property damage/loss may be insured, but firefighting costs might not be included. Every policy is different. Review your policy and make sure you know what your coverage is whether it be for fire, flood, or anything else that could affect your life.

It’s important to be informed now, so in case the worst does happen, you’ll be prepared and will know what to expect.
