How to email boards in Cape Elizabeth — and why messages are public

Susanna Mizzell Hubbs demonstrated the Boards & Committees pages and how an email link can send one message to an entire committee. She selected the planning board page and noted that the email is typically routed to the staff lead and the committee members.

Maureen O'Mara added a public-records caution: "It's municipal government. Everything we do is public," and advised residents to assume emails to committees could be seen by others and to compose messages accordingly.
