City of Caribou, Maine

The City is developing a Riverfront Revitalization Masterplan and we’re inviting residents to share their ideas for how the riverfront could be used, enjoyed, and developed—especially around Water Street near the Train Station and the Power Plant site at the dam.

Your feedback will help shape what this area could become for generations to come. The survey is completely anonymous, but if you leave your contact information at the end, you can be entered to win a gift certificate!
