As towns on Maine’s midcoast see more property owners wanting to build their own piers, two towns are considering potential moratoriums to pause building before the natural landscape and public access are irrevocably impacted. In both Camden and Lincolnville, residents will soon decide whether or not to put a moratorium on the construction of privately-owned residential piers, docks, floats and ramps in their coastal waters. Camden Select Board Member Alison McKellar said. “It’s this private thing that is forever in public space, so I think we need to view that with caution.”
