** MECHANIC FALLS ** ANNUAL REPORT DEDICATION **

This 2024-25 Annual Report of the Town of Mechanic Falls is dedicated to Scott Penney

When you mention the name Scott Penney to residents of Mechanic Falls, they will tell you certain words come to mind. Words like, dedicated, hard working, and respected community member. Scott Penney has faithfully served the Town of Mechanic Falls for 29 years. Hired, in June 1995 in the public works department, Scott was promoted to Director in March 1998, and retired in August 2024. In those years, Scott built a reputation of doing whatever it took to take care of the town, and its citizens. He could always be seen out and about, plowing, sanding, ditching, and mowing. In addition, Scott took great pride in caring for the flowers in Veteran’s Park, placing flags on veteran graves, and decorating the town for Christmas.

Scott is known for helping others: whether it’s pitching in to build a wheelchair ramp for a veteran, or thawing pipes for a neighbor during a cold snap. Scott has helped many in the community over the years. Scott continues to serve the community in many other ways including as a longtime member of the Sons of the American Legion Post 150, and as a Trustee of the Sanitary District.

A life-long resident of the Mechanic Falls area, Scott continues to reside on Fourth Avenue in Mechanic Falls. This 2024 Mechanic Falls Annual Town Report is dedicated to Scott Penney, a true community hero.
