PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • October 17, 2024
Scarborough is growing – fast. In many ways, that’s good news. There are new residents, new homes and new jobs in our community. But the quick pace of change also puts a lot of pressure on open spaces, natural areas, beach access and our ability to maintain clean water. On Nov. 5, voters will have the chance to take action to protect those things and more. Scarborough Question 3 authorizes the town to issue bonds for up to $6 million to protect our community and the places that make it special. Question 3 funds Scarborough’s land acquisition reserve fund, which was created by voters in 2000. ~ Patrick O’Reilly
