Hedberg upbeat on SAD 71 plans amid legal delays
Kennebunk superintendent Arthur Hedberg remains optimistic about a $5.2 million high and middle school complex despite a recent suit by Herman Cohen and an anticipated Kennebunkport suit. He says progress on the $4.3 million high school and middle school renovations continues, though bonds face a crunch. Hedberg may pursue a damage suit against parties delaying the project. He notes the Maine Supreme Court decision on Cohen's appeal and plans to discuss countermoves with the school board. He stresses the mandate of voters for better facilities and the need to proceed with bond issuance through the Maine Municipal Bond Bank.
