Saco Planners Grapple With Shoreland Zoning Changes
The Saco planning board debated proposed shoreland zoning changes sent by the ordinance committee. Key issues include whether to use the 100-year flood plain or spill areas to place parcels in RP districts and whether to set the setback at 75 or 100 feet near wetlands. A public hearing is set for Oct. 6 as the city extends its moratorium until its ordinance is adopted.

Jail Funding Push Again For Alfred County Jail
Kenneth Finegan of the Maine Criminal Justice Planning Agency says York County will seek a new federal grant through the Department of Commerce to help fund the Alfred county jail project. He warns the $12 million bid faces stiff competition and may not meet unemployment alleviation goals, while the county pursues $800,000 in bonds and $112,500 LEAA funds, leaving about $200,000 short. The filing deadline with the federal government is September 9, with the application due to commissioners by early next week.
