The Peaks Island Council was established by the City Council of Portland, Maine on July 17, 2007. In the words of the City Council resolution:
Whereas, the city is composed of many distinct
neighborhoods and several offshore island communities that require appropriate
and effective mechanisms to bring their local issues to the attention of the
city council for review and action; and
Whereas, the city’s island communities face issues that differ from those of
its mainland neighborhoods; and
Whereas, Peaks Island is the largest of the city’s islands and has
substantially more year round residents than the other city islands; and
Whereas, Peaks Island’s distinctive issues and its relatively large
population have led to the need for an elected body of representatives that will
work closely with the city council to
address island issues; and
Whereas, the city wishes to assist the residents of Peaks Island in
setting up a structure which will provide a stronger voice on island issues and
in city affairs for its residents;
