On September 14th, WERU held a public forum on “The Future of Sears Island”, at the Alamo Theater in Bucksport. There was a studio audience and the event was broadcast live. For those of you who missed it, we recorded the forum and will be broadcasting it in 2 parts, here on Weekend Voices. Today we bring you the first hour. (The second half will air in this time slot next week.) WERU volunteer Gray Parrot was the moderator, and the panelists were State Senator Dennis Damon; Searsport resident Peter Tabor of Fair Play for Sears Island; Jim Freeman,Joint Use Planning Committee (JUPC) member; Maine DOT Commissioner David Cole; and Ron Huber of Penobscot Bay Watch
