AUGUSTA
Two more Maine municipalities have been designated as “business-friendly” by the state.
The Department of Economic and Community Development says Presque Isle and Richmond have made the grade to be certified as business- friendly communities.
Twenty Maine towns and cities have earned the designation since the program was launched a year ago.
Those deemed as businessfriendly are given a certificate and two road signs to tout the award.
They’re also promoted by the state as being businessfriendly.
Communities are evaluated on whether they have a business friendly approach in terms of things like customer service, licensing and permitting, business involvement and collaboration.
