Mahone Bay is taking steps to better protect its water supply.
Town council has purchased two parcels of land bordering Oakland Lake.
Mayor Joe Feeny says the ten acres was acquired as part of an ongoing attempt to protect the town's watershed.
It was six months ago when the town first bid on the property.
Chief Administrative Officer, James Wentzell, says purchasing the land through a tax sale led to processing delays, but removed large leans on the property from the previous owner.
The town now owns six lake-side properties.
