The next #HomelessVeterans #MobileStandDown event is August 19 in #BangorME
How a mobile outreach program connects Maine's homeless veterans to resources
By Jacob Murphy , July 23, 2026
"Driving past Veterans Memorial Park in Lewiston, you may have noticed a large, inflatable eagle that wasn't there before. That's one of the ways organizers are hoping to grab the attention of veterans in the community.
"The Homeless Veterans Mobile Stand Down is a yearly tradition in Maine put together by the Maine Bureau of Veterans' Services in partnership with the U.S. Dept. of Veterans Affairs. Every year it makes stops in multiple cities and towns to connect homeless veterans with resources.
" 'Veterans, like anyone else, can fall across hard times,' said Ryan Lorrain, with the Maine Bureau of Veterans' Services. 'We want to make sure that we're there, providing them with the resources to lift them back up.'
"Several community organizations set up at the event. On Wednesday, there was free food, haircuts and services connecting homeless veterans to housing and jobs.
"According to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Maine is the second best state when it comes to providing shelter for homeless veterans, but the number of homeless veterans has been increasing, up 12% from 2024 and 2025. "

These #Maine #librarians are helping patrons resist #AI and #BigTech
by Bridget Huber, July 2, 2026
"In recent months, the #SearsmontME Town Library has added a new service for patrons: Help in removing AI from their phones and other devices.
" 'A lot of times, it’s just telling people that they have choices,' Library Director #StevenBrown said. 'Their phone came a certain way, but they don’t have to use it the way that it came.'
"Brown helps patrons disable AI-powered assistants like Siri or so-called smart features in email and switch from using Google, which doesn’t offer an option to search without AI overviews, to a browser that does.
"A big part of his job as a librarian has been helping people with information technology, he said. He sees helping people think critically about technology and AI as a natural extension of this work.
"While Brown’s long been skeptical of the purported benefits of technology for society, he didn’t start offering the #AIRemoval services until this spring, when he attended a webinar presented by #HannahCyrus, a #BangorME librarian who has become a leading voice in a nationwide movement of librarians who are working to help patrons understand the risks of AI and other technologies.
" 'I seem to have become the face of #AIHaters — which I’m fine with — in the library world,' Cyrus said.
"Cyrus, a reference librarian at the Bangor Public Library, teaches classes on how to use technology. But that doesn’t mean uncritically embracing and promoting it, she said.
" 'I really try to make sure people not only know where to tap or click to get done what they want to do, but to understand the values and issues at play as they’re using different pieces of technology,' she said.
"Commonly used tools like Gmail and Chat GPT are not neutral, she said. 'These are products created by giant #corporations who want your information and want your attention,' she said. “And that has real impacts on our lives.”
"The most popular class Cyrus has taught is called #AvoidingAI, which explains what #GenerativeAI is, some of the concerns around it, and how to disable it and find alternatives. The first time she taught the class in fall of 2025 more than 70 people enrolled. She taught it again this spring, and Brown was one of 20 Maine librarians to enroll. "

#BangorME woman creates a free #SeedlingLibrary to help gardeners and find community
by Elizabeth Walztoni April 26, 2026
"The wooden box on a post outside Amanda Moscone’s Bangor home looks like most little free libraries, where people typically take or leave books
"But opening the door reveals shelves of greenery instead: potted houseplants, cuttings and propagated leaves. A smaller box below it holds free vegetable seed packets and pots."

#JanetMills vetoed a #DataCenter pause. Towns are looking to pass their own.
At least four municipalities have proposed their own moratoriums on new data center development while they refine local regulations.
by Daniel Kool, May 18, 2026
"Without a statewide moratorium on large data center development, a patchwork of local laws appears to be forming in #Maine.
"Weeks after Gov. Janet Mills vetoed a bill to temporarily restrict permitting for new data centers of 20 megawatts or more, at least four towns and cities are considering enacting their own moratoriums. The local pauses are designed to give officials time to review their zoning rules and develop new regulations for large data centers — should they ever come to town.
"Some, like those in Sanford and Scarborough, come as developers have already proposed building data centers in town. Others, like in Brunswick and Westbrook, are designed to get ahead of potential data center construction. All four communities plan to discuss their proposals at meetings this week.
"Though these local proposals have taken on new urgency in a lieu of a broader moratorium, they are not the first of their kind. The Bangor City Council unanimously passed a city-wide pause in April, days before Mills shot down the statewide effort. Anne Krieg, the town’s director of development, said they 'didn’t want to wait for the state,' as development pressure mounted."

Anne Krieg, the town’s director of development, said they 'didn’t want to wait for the state,' as development pressure mounted."

#JanetMills vetoed a #DataCenter pause. Towns are looking to pass their own.
At least four municipalities have proposed their own moratoriums on new data center development while they refine local regulations.
by Daniel Kool, May 18, 2026
"Without a statewide moratorium on large data center development, a patchwork of local laws appears to be forming in #Maine.
"Weeks after Gov. Janet Mills vetoed a bill to temporarily restrict permitting for new data centers of 20 megawatts or more, at least four towns and cities are considering enacting their own moratoriums. The local pauses are designed to give officials time to review their zoning rules and develop new regulations for large data centers — should they ever come to town.
"Some, like those in Sanford and Scarborough, come as developers have already proposed building data centers in town. Others, like in Brunswick and Westbrook, are designed to get ahead of potential data center construction. All four communities plan to discuss their proposals at meetings this week.

50-year-old temperature record broken in #BangorME during spring #HeatWave
by Leela Stockley, March 10, 2026
"A spring heat wave that has brought temperatures in the 50s and 60s across much of the state for the past few days smashed a daily temperature record in Bangor on Tuesday.
"According to the Caribou office of the National Weather Service, a high temperature of 70 degrees was recorded in Bangor Tuesday afternoon, topping a daily record of 62 degrees set nearly 50 years ago. That daily high temperature record was set in 1977.
"That marks the third day in a row that the Queen City has experienced record high temperatures: A daily record high of 59 degrees was observed Monday, tying a record high set in 2016, and a daily record high of 60 degrees was observed Sunday, beating out a high of 59 degrees set in 2012.
"It is also the earliest that Bangor has ever recorded a 70-degree day in the history of record keeping, which dates back to 1925. The previous earliest recorded temperature at or above 70 degrees was on March 18, 2012, when Bangor reached 76 degrees."
[...]
"The high temperatures and sunshine won’t be sticking around, as northern Maine faces a winter storm warning rolling in Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. Daytime temperatures across the state are expected to be significantly cooler than Tuesday’s conditions, with highs in the mid 30s to low 40s."

by Brittany McHattenBANGOR, Maine (WABI) - "It’s not even Labor Day yet, but an early-season cool spell has some Mainers planning ahead for colder months.
"That includes the Bangor Area Homeless Shelter which is moving forward with previously-announced plans to forgo its overnight warming center this winter.
"Shelter officials say they ran their overnight warming center for seven years. But, when they closed in March, they decided they wouldn’t reopen in the fall.
"That’s mainly due to the high cost of staffing, but the numbers weren’t making sense either.
"The shelter’s executive director says at one point there were 15 people in the warming center, but 11 of the 38 beds upstairs were open.
"With the planned addition of five mats on a temporary basis, they hope to help fill some of the gaps that will be left behind.
" 'One of the questions I was asked is: with us closed, will there still be enough room for people? There wasn’t enough room for people with us open, either. Seven or eight years ago when we started, we had about two-dozen people who were outside. That number now is probably 100 times, if not more than that, with people we have who are outside,' said Boyd Kronholm, executive director, Bangor Area Homeless Shelter. 'Although there is a need for this service, we’re just not able to provide it.'
"The plan is for those five additional beds to come open November 1st until the end of April.
"Bangor will have two remaining overnight warming centers. They’re located at the Brick Church on Union Street and The Mansion Church on Center Street."

#Maine - #BangorME #WarmingCenter draws near record crowd amid temperature drop
By Brian Sullivan
Published: Jan. 16, 2026 at 3:34 PM ESTBANGOR, Maine (WABI) - "The return to more January-like conditions made for one of the busiest days on record for a Bangor warming center.
"By 9:30 a.m. Friday, The Well, located off Center Street, had 73 people checked in.
"They offer breakfast and lunch, laundry, and a hot shower. It’s also a chance to be seen by a medical professional.
"Open from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. six days a week, the crew tells WABI they work to meet people where they’re at.
" 'I have experienced other places in the Bangor area that are meant to be helping the homeless,' explained warming center user Kerry Robinson. 'There is nothing compares to this.'
" 'There’s a lot of mental illness that’s not being taken care of,' said Jericho Road Street Ministry, President, Mel Coombs. 'Some of the mental illness is treated, but they lose their medication because they are homeless, and they don’t have a proper storage for the medication. We love everybody that comes through our door. We don’t discriminate at all. I don’t think housing is the answer. It would help, but it’s not a long-term solution. I spoke to the city council the other day, and I basically told them the same thing. That’s not the answer. I don’t have the answers, but hopefully we’re here until somebody comes up with the right solution.'
"The Well is operated by Jericho Road Ministry. They are a 501 3C non-profit and run solely on donations.
"They accept money but are also happy to take clothing and other items to help people get though the colder months."
