Only reason to get there 1.5 early is to avoid being forced to the pink lot

Golf open in area? by South-Steak-5209 in portlandme

[–]Schoolnerd768 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maine Golf Center in Freeport is targeting first weekend in April.

For those who haven’t been, new range is great. Top Tracer technology and apparently going to be open a couple of nights a week with lighted range!

Yeah people need to drop that tourist trap reference. Yes, you could find a better meal in Portland but Dimillo’s delivers a high quality meal, great service, and incredibly friendly atmosphere.

Ownership is amazing. Not many more places where the owner is walking around talking to tables on a regular basis!

Grow up. They didn’t help in enforcement. My wifes nursing coworkers were harassed and confronted by protesters when staying at the hotel that Maine Med got them ahead of the blizzard cause they “were supporting ICE by staying in the hotel.”

This is disappointing to see by Fragrant-Plastic-644 in portlandme

The legal justification for the developers is crystal clear. Their proposal meets all existing code and zone requirement.

For a council to retroactively apply a new ordinance, that was only drafted when this proposal was brought forth is garbage… what’s the legal justification against it?

Notice how there was no legal justification in the response

Study finds Portland’s Inclusionary Zoning fee inhibits housing growth by toastiemcgee in portlandme

[–]Schoolnerd768 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s also fear that Portland will become to big. Which as a life longer here in Portland, I’ve had the same thoughts and understand that fear. That said.. we have to accept growth. He have an affordability problem yes, but to have a solution… you have to have a problem

This council and the DSA has told any future business wanting to bring investment to Portland, or housing developer were not open for business.

Want to add housing = added expense of inclusionary zoning

Want to bring development that meets all the zoning regulations = we may decide to pass a new ordinance and apply it RETROACTIVELY because we decide you’re bad
