Interest High For Planning Board Vacancy



(Lamoine) — With the resignation of Chairman Perry Fowler from the Planning Board following his election to the Board of Selectmen, the Board selected vice-chair Gordon Donaldson to lead them until July. Donaldson is the senior member of the board which has experienced an influx of new members in the past year.


Replacing Fowler on the Planning Board is current Board of Appeals Chairman Melody Havey. Ms. Havey is an Assistant Attorney General specializing in Child Support Enforcement. Though several others were interested in Planning Board service, all said they favored Ms. Havey’s appointment because of her legal background. That opens a position on the Board of Appeals, likely to be filled by alternate Chris Tadema-Wielandt. At least one Alternate Appeals Board position, and possibly two will be filled by the Selectmen.
