Squirrel Island, Maine is a summer resort colony off the coast of Boothbay Harbor. Founded in 1871 as a Village Corporation within the town of Southport, it is one of a handful of communities so governed. The "Village Corporation" adds an additional layer of control within the town government to meet the island's unique needs. Squirrel Island pays taxes to Southport and receives funds for necessary services (like roads) from that town; however an additional tax (the "Squirrel Island Special Tax") is levied that is completely locally controlled and spent.
