Regional in practice. Two-county in law.
Lincoln and Sagadahoc have run Two Bridges Regional Jail together since it opened in 2006, under an authority created by special act in 2003. Knox has boarded inmates there for years; on 1 January 2026 it closed most of its own jail and moved to a comprehensive housing agreement. The question now is whether Knox belongs inside the structure rather than contracting with it.
An independent reading of the enabling statute, the counties' own minutes and audited financials, and the 2026 facility study, prepared while responding to RFP No. 2026-0824. It is not a proposal, it was not commissioned by the counties, and it argues for no particular governance structure.

About
I'm Noel Madore, a Certified Maine Assessor (CMA #926). As a primary assessors' agent I handled waterfront and commercial valuation, personal property, BETE/BETR, commitments, and abatements, and walked more than 10,000 properties in revaluation work.
Before that I spent five years in senior public finance across Maine state government and public higher education, most recently as a senior financial analyst. I have served on Lewiston's Board of Assessment Review and the Readfield Planning Board.
I hold a Master of Public Policy & Management from USM's Muskie School, with a finance concentration, and a bachelor's in Public Management focused on town administration.
