Abstract

"News & Issues" piece on Gov. Angus King's recent speech calling for a $75 million public lands acquisition fund, which would include a $50 million bond issue enhanced by $25 million in private and federal funds. The governor's bill will have competition in the Legislature, notably from a proposal by Sen. Chellie Pingree (D-North Haven) that seeks a $75 million bond issue, $20 million from an anticipated general fund surplus and $5 million from private donors. King's speech was the highlight of what was billed as the Governor's Eco/Eco (economy-environment) Forum at Maine Audubon.
