A MESSAGE ABOUT THE STATUS OF 8 MILL LANE, ALSO CALLED MILL LANE PARK OR GRIST MILL PARK, FROM THE PLAINTIFFS
The Kennebunkport Conservation Trust has started the development of the former grist mill site along the Kennebunk River. A video has been posted on youtube which can be viewed using the search term "Mill Lane Park Development April 2016" on the youtube site.
Earth moving equipment was delivered to the site on April 1. The removal of shrubs and the large maple tree began on April 4.
You are receiving this email because you have shown an interest in preventing the development of this property, which was purchased by the Kennebunkport Conservation Trust in 2006 to be held in conservation forever, or, until now.
The pending appeal of the Planning Board decision does not prevent the land developer, Kennebunkport Conservation Trust, from starting their project to build a replacement grist mill and parking lot. However, the Trust begins this development at their own risk. A Superior Court judge has the authority to overturn the Planning Board decision and instruct the property owner to restore the land to its pre-development state, should the Planning Board decision be overturned.
We thank you for your support.
