On January 9, MDI Hospital obtained conditional approval from the town's Design Review Board for its renovation and expansion project. The primary concern raised was regarding the internally illuminated signs that the hospital plans to install to mark the entrance to its emergency department, as illustrated in a rendering by the design firm SMRT.

BAR HARBOR – This past week marked a significant milestone for the planned renovation and expansion of Mount Desert Island Hospital.

On Tuesday, January 7, the Town Council made the decision to discontinue Stanwood Place, an essential component of the organization’s strategy, and handed over authority of the public roadway to the hospital. Subsequently, on Thursday, January 9, the hospital overcame another legislative challenge when the Design Review Board of the town approved the aspects of the project that they oversee, specifically ensuring that the aesthetic features of the redesign align with the character of the neighboring area.
