CEO of BerryDunn resigns; insider named as interim leader.

CEO of BerryDunn resigns; insider named as interim leader. August 12, 2026 Five years after taking the helm of BerryDunn, Sarah Belliveau has announced plans to resign as CEO this summer and stay on in an advisory role. Tammy Michaud, a principal at the firm, has been named interim CEO, with immediate effect. The company confirmed the news in a statement emailed to Mainebiz on Wednesday without giving a reason for Belliveau's departure from the Portland-based accounting firm after more than three decades with the firm. "Sarah has dedicated her entire professional career to BerryDunn and has played an important role in the firm's strategic growth," the company said. "Her leadership has helped shape a strong culture, foster lasting client relationships, and position the firm for continued success. We are grateful for her many years of service and commitment to the firm," the statement added. Michaud is already listed on the firm's website with her new title. Michaud joined BerryDunn in 1987 and has served two terms on the firm's board of director. She will work closely with the board and executive leadership team to provide continuity and leadership during the transition, the company said. BerryDunn said its board will launch a search for its next CEO in the coming months. With 2024 revenue of $129.9 million, BerryDunn was ranked as Maine's largest accounting firm in the 2026 Mainebiz Book of Lists. - Digital Partners -

Selectboard adopts Parks and Recreation needs assessment and impact fees analysis.

Selectboard adopts Parks and Recreation needs assessment and impact fees analysis. * reed nye * jul 14, 2026 * 0. ESSEX TOWN - With 47% of town residents living within a 10-minute walk to outdoor recreation, Essex Parks and Recreation's 12 parks enable the town to surpass its peers in outdoor activity and natural resources. "We are generally headed in the right direction," Adriane Martin, director of parks and recreation, told the Essex Selectboard July 13. "Certainly much more brainstorming, creativity, thinking outside-the-box and using the information that we are hearing here on what our community is interested in that helps guide us in what is going to be successful. What is going to guide us to generate revenue?" Over the past year, Parks and Recreation partnered with consulting firm BerryDunn to conduct a recreation needs assessment and impact fee analysis. The recreation needs assessment studied four types of parks: neighborhood, community, destination and natural area. Essex Town has 96.8 acres of available parks per 1,000 residents and 1,066 total acres of parkland, a standard that compares to 250 acres nationally and 593 acres regionally in New England, according to the study. The study also collected data from Oct. 2025 to Jan. 2026 at Parks and Recreation events, the Parks and Recreation website and various online surveys. These results determined that adult fitness, community special events and outdoor adventure activities are residents' greatest priorities, followed by programs for seniors, cultural enrichment, waterfitness and performing and visual arts. One of the weaker areas of Parks and Recreation was the amount of indoor space available for year-round activities, limiting certain arts and indoor-based activity offerings. "As the budget allows, additional investment in maintaining what you already have will go a long way," Ryan Hegreness, BerryDunn manager, said. "The town and staff are doing a remarkable job in maintaining the parks system especially with the resources available." While the Parks and Recreation department's spending per capita is in line with the regional average, their operating resource revenue per capita is lower than the regional and national averages, comparing $29 to $47 and $54 respectively. BerryDunn worked with Parks and Recreation to develop an impact fee analysis to assess an additional method of raising revenue. An impact fee is a one-time charge levied by municipalities on new developments to cover growth-related infrastructure and public service needs. If implemented, this new source of revenue could fund capital improvements, like some of the parks and recreation department's deficits defined by the needs assessment. BerryDunn and the Parks and Recreation department outlined minimal, moderate and maximum growth scenarios, but recommended using a moderate growth scenario in which the town acquired an additional 1,700 residents and 740 new residential units over the next 10 years. The town would see a recreation impact fee revenue of $50,000-65,000 annually if the moderate growth targets are met. The selectboard unanimously adopted the recreational needs assessment and the impact fee analysis July 13. The selectboard did not set any fees with this decision. The adoption of the assessment and analysis allows the town to use the studies for future decision-making. Also at the meeting, the selectboard added an article to the November ballot asking constituents to approve a local options tax. LOT is an additional 1% tax on all sales in a municipality. Towns receive 75% of revenue and can use the money to fund a variety of projects. The City of Essex Junction deployed a LOT in 2022. Other nearby towns with such a tax include Colchester, St. Albans City and Town, Williston, Winooski and Swanton. The board also denied a citizen request to add an article to the November ballot to amend the town charter to prohibit individuals from serving on both the Planning Commission and the Development Review Board. The selectboard discussed upcoming tax rates which will be set in August. Deputy Town Manager Karen Adams said residents filed around 400 formal grievances against their assessed property values. She noted residents had many concerns about the appraisal project and how assessed values would impact their taxes.

Low turnout marks city of Columbia events aimed at strategic plan feedback.

Low turnout marks city of Columbia events aimed at strategic plan feedback. * william firra, KOMU 8 reporter * jun 9, 2026 updated 3 hrs ago. Six people attended a meeting on Tuesday where residents could to give feedback on the city of Columbia's strategic plan. COLUMBIA - Just six residents came to an event aimed at getting feedback on Columbia's new strategic plan Tuesday night. One attendee told KOMU 8 she was shocked to find the event mostly empty. This was the fifth and final feedback meeting, and a total number of 32 residents attended all the meetings. Columbia announced in April that it had hired national consulting firm BerryDunn to help it build the strategic plan. Consultants from the firm conducted the five feedback meetings. "If it's not directly effecting them or if they don't have a concern or a direct issue, there's not a lot of turnout to events for people to express their opinion," BerryDunn consultant Maddi Powers Spencer said. To help drive engagement, Powers Spencer said the firm tried to connect residents with multiple online options. Residents who still want to express their opinions can do so by filling out a survey or submitting to an idea wall or forum on the city of Columbia website. A staff member from the city manager's office told KOMU 8 the final plan will be presented to the Columbia City Council this fall. To report an error or typo, email [email protected].
