SCARBOROUGH — The second part of a public forum on smart meters will be held Dec. 14.

Town officials and Central Maine Power Co. arranged a forum after the Town Council approved a resolution asking the utility to delay installation of smart meter equipment until residents could voice their concerns about the program.

A forum was held last week but ran so long that another was scheduled. Most of the forum focused on health concerns.

The second forum will focus on concerns about fire safety and cybersecurity. It will be held at 7 p.m. in the Town Council chambers.

CMP has started a $192 million program to replace 620,000 meters with wireless, digital versions over two years.
