Green Light!
Boothbay Harbor Waterfront Preservation got approval to officially break ground on its long anticipated Atlantic Avenue east side waterfront park Oct. 14. BHWP President Bob McKay and MRLD Landscape Architecture + Urbanism’s Mitchell Rasor presented the board with Maine Departments of Transportation and Environmental Protection permits, the last items needed to complete the application to the town.
After issues with state permits, property lines between BHWP and the town, and parking and lighting that have been resolved, the board passed the application on a condition that a note be included which states the site plan has fulfilled all view corridor requirements. Member Bill Hamblen said the note would document that view corridor requirements are receiving follow-up.
The approval drew a round of applause.
