The Community Development Department has been made aware of fraudulent activity requesting wire transfer of fees.

We are advising the public that fraudulent actors have attempted to pose as the Town of Kennebunk “Board Commissioners” and are initiating contact with applicants to request an immediate wire transfer for fees associated with the review of their application. At no time will our department ever ask for a wire transfer of any funds associated with the review of an application. 

Please direct any questions related to this to the Community Development Staff at CPSecretary@kennebunkmaine.us or contact 207-604-1303 in order to speak with someone directly.

Help the Kennebunk Free Library plan for the future. Take the survey today!

The Kennebunk Free Library has launched a survey as part of "KFL: The Next Chapter", an ongoing effort to evaluate how the library’s building can best meet local needs in the years ahead.

The survey invites residents, library users, and community partners to share their feedback which will help identify strengths, challenges, and opportunities related to the library’s physical space and how it supports programs, services, and daily use. 

Take the survey now!

“We’re eager to hear from as many voices as possible,” said Michelle Conners, Executive Director. “Community feedback will directly inform our understanding of what’s working well, where there are constraints, and how the library can continue to adapt over time.” 

As part of this exploratory process, the library is studying space usage, functionality, accessibility, and long-term sustainability. This survey is a way the public can participate in shaping the conversation before any specific proposals are developed. 

Board President Vicki Lyons underscored the importance of broad participation. “The library belongs to the community,” Lyons said. “This survey gives residents an opportunity to reflect on how they use the library today and what they hope it can provide in the future.”

The survey is available online at www.kennebunklibrary.org and will remain open through March 9. Paper copies are also available at the library for those who prefer to respond in person. 

Community updates will be shared as information is gathered and the planning process continues. For more information, please call 207-985-2173 or email kfl@kennebunklibrary.org
