- Worth noticing
- It separates the ballot question, Select Board review, land-use permitting, and possible post-opening rules into distinct processes.
Field notes
The page distinguishes four related processes: the local-option ballot vote, a Planning Board permit, Select Board review, and possible town-meeting or ordinance action. It cites BABLO guidance and Maine statutes, and includes a post-hearing discussion of how land-use amendments may differ from standalone police-power ordinances. Links point to separate ordinance sections and neighboring-town references.
