Dear God, I remember getting called a shill for big oil because I pointed out a few of the issues with putting solar panels flat on the ground and driving over them would cause.

Yeah, the Portland Metro has what? Under 700k people? Boston metro has 5 million. Somehow i think we're safe from Portland becoming Boston in our lifetimes.

"Why is the Dunkin/Amatos/Hannaford understaffed. Don't people want to work anymore?" 😭
"Ma'am/Sir, most of the employees can't afford to live in this county let alone in this town, so they aren't going to work here either. Maybe if we upzone the area we can build more affordable housing. Look at this nice apartment building that's proposed to go where the abandoned Hollywood video was." 🤓
"No, that building is horrible. It's three stories, practically a skyscraper. Also the shutters look different than what I want on my house. Why are you trying to make (random town) into Manhattan." 😭

You do realize the State Police aren't going to show up and make you move into the apartment building. If you don't want to live there, then don't live there.

So a home owner that wants his speculative investment to have a valuation boost due to artificial scarcity. Got it.

Notice how the sprawl of SFH subdivisions that sell for more than $600K never ruins the historic charm of the town/region/state, just the apartment buildings that young people or those less affluent might want to live in do.

Short answer, no. I wouldn't live in Aroostook County if you have any health concerns you consider more complex than something a GP/PCP and pharmacist can handle. I'd probably stick to the Bangor area if possible.

Cowbell has good burgers. The restaurants in the mill complex are pretty good, excluding portland pie co.

I think the homeless rate reduction will ride the coat tails of what you mentioned, assuming we produce enough new housing. If we produce enough housing, landlords will be more willing to work with the homeless (and other distressed communities) in order to fill vacant units. Right now, landlords can be very particular about tenants since they have so many interested renters.

Most people do not farm. It makes no sense for the government to force people to waste a finite resource, like land, for a potential activity they may have no desire or need to engage in.

So that's not happening.
Too many people are perfectly okay with driving by homeless people on their way to town meetings where they will deride anything that would increase housing.

But she's a real Mainer man. She lives like three months a year in Bangor. Much better than that carpet bagger Sara Gideon.
