1. Transportation Survey Results

460 surveys were mailed out with 49 responses. 55% of respondents said they would use community transportation. Blue Hill was the favored destination by 93% with Ellsworth at 41%. 79% said they would be willing to provide transportation either occasionally or weekly. The desire for community transportation is relatively evenly split between North, South, West Brooksville plus Cape Rosier/Harborside. Grocery shopping was the most common goal followed by banking and medical appointments. Two thirds were interested in a community gathering to discuss this issue further. There will be further discussion with Chuck Lawrence at Tradewinds concerning possibility of a Tradewinds bus The Brooksville website has a “bulletin board” to indicate rides offered/needed. The transportation committee would like a small Healthy Peninsula grant to continue their work.



  1. Brooksville trails development

This topic was deferred to the February meeting. There was discussion of

VolksMarching – community walking events with hiking directions.



  1. Community Support for young individuals and Families in Brooksville

There was continued discussion about the desire for increased community

support for the Valley of the Stars community and Open Mic in West

supported undertaking with people of all ages participating. The group has

also applied for a Healthy Peninsula grant through Brooksville Friends and

Neighbors to develop a strategic plan going forward.
