PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • February 7, 2024
The first phase of the large Gorham housing development moved ahead Monday with unanimous Planning Board preliminary approval. KV Enterprises developers hope to begin construction this spring on 43 single-family homes in the initial phase of a planned mix of 96 homes and 295 multifamily units. Developers need the Town Council’s permission to build a road on town-owned property. They are also seeking to increase the pace of buildout from 10 units a year allowed under the existing growth ordinance to 15. The project is proposed for a 131-acre tract, and 51 acres of it off New Portland Road would be conserved.
