Acadia’s citizen advisory commission has not met this year

PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • June 23, 2026

A citizen advisory commission for Acadia National Park has missed its two meetings so far in 2026. The bylaws say the Acadia Advisory Commission shall convene at least three times per year. Usually, those meetings take place in February, June and September. The first two meetings planned this year have not happened, which members and stakeholders said seems to be the result of an administrative problem at the national level.
