The "Village Corporation" adds an additional layer of control within the town government to meet the island's unique needs. Squirrel Island pays taxes to Southport and receives funds for necessary services from that town; however an additional tax is levied that is completely locally controlled and spent. Local dining options include Oceanfront Restaurant, Whiteclover, The Salty Stag, and Whales Tale.
