Stoneham Eyes Evergreen Valley Recreation Area Sale
Stoneham Maine schedules a special town meeting to decide if the selectmen should negotiate with the Maine Guarantee Authority to buy the 2000 acre Evergreen Valley resort area near the White Mountains. The MGA foreclosed after a $3.4 million loan default. Stoneham offered 500000 down and 500000 financed over 20 years at 6 percent. Local officials cite heavy property tax burdens and consider possible federal recreation funds, with no town funds pledged at this time.

Ropes hold house as Kennebec embankment fails Waterville
In Waterville Maine a 21 year old home was stabilized with ropes after heavy rains undermined a 50 by 30 foot yard along the Kennebec River. The back yard collapsed and walls cracked forcing Renie Raymond his wife and two of their five children to flee to relatives. Civil Defense says new fill weakened soil and caused the erosion while firefighters cut off a porch to stabilize the occupied dwelling.
