Notice is hereby given that, effective February 28, 2026, Casco Bay Island Transit District is implementing changes to the vehicle rates to Peaks Island that will affect all vehicles longer than 20 feet or wider than 8’6”. The proposed change eliminates the distinction between commercial and non-commercial vehicles and eliminates weight-based pricing in favor of length-based pricing and eliminates the charge for contents.

Any 50 or more ratepayers may file pursuant to 35A M.S.R.A., Section 1302, a written request with the Maine Public Utilities Commission in Augusta for an investigation of the rate changes adopted by the Transit District.
