Abstract

"News & Issues" piece on an amendment to a legislative bill now before the Legislature's Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry Committee, making it clear that property without guaranteed vehicular access can be acquired as public land, though an explanation then must be made to the Legislature. In its original form, the measure prohibited state acquisition of land without guaranteed access. The Department of Conservation, the Land for Maine's Future Board and environmental groups opposed such a constraint because it could block important land protection projects.
