WENA Looking for Rep for Review Committee

The West End Neighborhood Association is looking for a community representative to serve on the committee that would review proposals for the development of a lot in the West End.

The City of Portland is selling the parking lot at the corner of High Street and Danforth Street for private development and has received three proposals - from PROP, Habitat For Humanity, and Random Orbits Inc.

The review committee will meet once in May, and make a presentation to the Portland Housing Committee on June 6th. The committee will recommend a development plan to the City Council, and the Council will make the final decision on the sale of the property.The City requests that the public representative be impartial, open-minded, and unassociated with any of the three developers named in the proposals.

Anyone interested in serving on the committee should contact WENA President Robert O'Brien by Monday, May 1st at wenaprez@yahoo.com or at (207) 939-7703.
