Our friends at Quality Housing Coalition have an urgent request and can use your help. They have 9 units on Summer Street in City of Bath that are designated for 55+ that the landlord is having troubles filling. They are a mix of 1 and 2 bedrooms. Price ranges shown in image.

OMG, the rents are incredible

Over 55... drop your rents to $600.- $700/mo and you'll fill those units.

Rents are so high.

If I lost my house, I would be homeless, because the high rents would take up most of my SS.

Please reach out to lucas@qualityhousingcoalition.org to learn how to apply.

Share with your friends. This is legit if it's coming from Kim.

Linda Lenfest Lelansky

But there is no parking…. My friends find that a drawback….

To bad the price is hard. Unless they accept Section 8

Those rents are still pretty high for Seniors who live off of Social Security.😔 It seems like they're for the working seniors🤔

We are working with our fellow City Departments, County, and State agencies to monitor the impact of tonight and tomorrow's storm.

We'd like people to do what they can to prepare for wind, rain, road closures, and power outages. We're not expecting a worst-case scenario here, but it helps to be prepared.

Please do not put yourself or responding public safety personnel in danger by taking unnecessary risks and venturing out in the storm, such as near the shore, under large trees, electrical wires, etc. If you must drive, don't drive through standing water or flooded roadways, watch for sinkholes, and lower your speed.

Lastly, if you have an issue for police, public works, or fire that isn't an emergency and can wait until after the storm to deal with, we'd appreciate it as it will free us up for storm-related responses.

Latest National Weather Service information for Maine:

Key Takeaways:

●Lee will move into the Gulf of Maine late tonight into Saturday as a Cat 1 hurricane or strong tropical storm
before making landfall near the Bay of Fundy as a tropical storm.
● Large, pounding surf is expected with coastal and marine impacts likely to begin this evening. Coastal wave
splash over and minor beach erosion is possible, especially near times of high tide.
● Tropical storm force winds are forecast for the coast into interior Maine due to the large wind field with
Hurricane Lee. In addition, gusty winds are expected for all interior areas with gusts in the 40-50 mph range
Saturday afternoon.
● Heavy rain axis continues to be placed further east, with the Mid-coast and Central Maine still vulnerable to
flash flooding and small stream rise ... See MoreSee Less

It may seem early...but it takes months to set up an event like Thanksgiving for so many. When we lost Midcoast Pizza and More (not their fault) we had hoped someone would pick up the reigns and run with it..AND THEY DID...THE PHIPPSBURG SPORTSMEN'S ASSOCIATION! We are truly grateful to Norma Burpee and her team for taking on such a huge responsibility. We will help in any way they would like us to, but they are looking for volunteers. Drivers to pick up people to bring them to the meal, drivers to deliver meals, servers, cleaners and much much more. Lets show them...the same love and compassion we showed Midcoast Pizza and More all those years! ... See MoreSee Less

I recently donated the $$ in my Clynk Account directly to the Bath Area Food Bank and it was super easy. This might be another option if folks have bottles to get rid of.

Great idea. I just donated my Clynk balance to the food bank

Kimberly F. Gates if you can't get rid of all of the ripe bananas, I would love to take some for baking. :)

Oh wow wish I had a vehicle to get there. So many good things today 😩

No one needs to go hungry in our area. The food is there, the people are welcoming, and the Food Bank strives to have the best offerings they can provide.
