    C I T Y O F P O R T L A N D LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE September 20, 2016 M E E T I N G N O T E S In attendance: Portland City Councilors: David Brenerman, Justin Costa, Jill Duson, Jon Hinck, Ethan Strimling, Ed Suslovic City staff: Jon Jennings (City Manager), Julie Sullivan (Senior Advisor to the City Manager), Jason Shedlock (Special Assistant to the Mayor) School staff: Xavier Botana (Superintendent) Lobbyist: Kate Knox Legislative delegation: Justin Alfond, Ben Chipman, Mark Dion, Dick Farnsworth, Anne Haskell, Erik Jorgensen, Matt Moonen, Diane Russell Guest: Beth Stickney 1. Committee Chairman Justin Costa welcomed everyone and stated that we want to determine the City’s priorities before the session, with the goal of getting full Council buy-in well in advance of cloture. 2. Beth Stickney wants the City and the delegation to be aware of the threat to current prohibitions against asking immigration status during, for example, a traffic stop or at school registration. Rep. Lockman, at the governor’s request, introduced LD 1652 last year, which fortunately did not get assigned to a committee; it is possible he will re-introduce that bill or a similar one. Beth also mentioned the Maine Business Immigration Coalition which she is convening to provide a business voice against any legislation that is unfavorable to immigrants, because we need to retain and integrate them into our work force. Lastly, Beth stated that proactive legislation will be introduced to increase funding for adult ed, which would maximize WIOA money for job training. Jon Jennings updated the group that he and Corp Counsel Danielle West-Chuhta met with Mary Mayhew regarding the implementation of PL 324.

  • Timeline of Maine Skiing New England Ski Museum in Preparation for 2015 Annual Exhibit
    Timeline of Maine Skiing New England Ski Museum In preparation for 2015 Annual Exhibit Mid 1800s: “…the Maine legislature sought to populate the vast forests of northern Maine. It offered free land to anyone who would take up the challenge of homesteading in this wilderness. ...Widgery Thomas, state legislator and ex-Ambassador to Sweden…suggested that the offer of free land be made to people in Sweden. In May, 1870 Thomas sailed for Sweden to offer 100 acres of land to any Swede willing to settle in Maine. Certificates of character were required. Thomas himself had to approve each recruit.” Glenn Parkinson, First Tracks: Stories from Maine’s Skiing Heritage . (Portland: Ski Maine, 1995), 4. March 1869: “In March 1869 the state resolved “to promote the settlement of the public and other lands” by appointing three commissioners of settlement. William Widgery Thomas, Jr., one of the commissioners, had extensive diplomatic experience as ambassador to Sweden for Presidents Arthur and Harrison. Thomas had lived among the Swedes for years and was impressed with their hardy quality. He returned to the United States convinced that Swedes would make just the right sort of settlers for Maine. When Thomas became consul in Goteborg (Gothenburg), he made immediate plans for encouraging Swedes to emigrate to America.” E. John B. Allen, “”Skeeing” in Maine: The Early Years, 1870s to 1920s”, Maine Historical Society Quarterly , 30, 3 & 4, Winter, Spring 1991, 149. July 23, 1870 "Widgery Thomas and his group of 22 men, 11 women and 18 children arrived at a site in the woods north of Caribou.
