Historic Preservation and Land Conservation TIME AND Historic Preservation PLACE: and Land Conservation By Elisabeth Ptak cabin. A mansion. A battlefield. A barn. Human history is written all over the American landscape, often revealing stories that enrich our understanding of the relationships between people and the land. Top: In 1883, American landscape painter Winslow Homer moved to Prouts Neck, Maine. A partnership “Preservation is a fundamental human impulse,” says Stephanie Meeks, president between the Scarborough Land Trust, the Portland Museum of Art and the Prouts Neck Association and CEO of the National Trust for Historic Preservation in Washington, D.C. protects the buildings and the land. “There are places that matter to all of us, whether it’s the outdoors or the built envi- © TRENTBELLPHOTOGRAPHY ronment.

That can become a real connec- tion for land trusts wanting to reach out to Millennials, an even larger group than Baby Boomers.” Land trusts also increasingly recognize the important connection between con- servation and community at the intersection of cultural resources and landscape. Cultural resources are defined as the collective evidence of the past activities and accomplishments of people. Buildings, objects, features, locations and structures with scientific, historic and cultural value are all examples of cultural resources. 24 Winter 2015 SAVINGland www.landtrustalliance.org When history is tied to the land, a natural partnership can develop between land conservation and historic preservation. Lending Expertise Michigan’s Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy (GTRLC) doesn’t hold his- toric easements, “but we’ve never separated historical preservation from land conserva- tion,” says Executive Director Glen Chown. “We preserve context.” Nancy Finegood, who heads the Michigan Historic Preservation Network, shares that perspective. “Historical resources and the land go hand-in-hand. It’s difficult to parse the two. If buildings were part of the land, they’re often very significant to the property.” So when the two organizations were alerted to the potential of a high-density condominium development on the Old Mission Peninsula on Grand Traverse Bay, HEATHER EDWARDS they decided to collaborate. Built in the 1880s and remodeled in the 1920s as a summer retreat for Chicago lumber baron J.W. Stickney, Bowers Harbor Inn sits along West Grand Traverse Bay amidst the majestic oaks and pines of Old Mission Peninsula. The 11-acre property features 558 feet of undeveloped Lake Michigan shoreline, old growth white pines and the historic Bowers Harbor Inn.

Slovinsky Maine Geological Survey, Department of Agriculture, Conservation & Forestry 1 Beach and Dune Restoration, Scarborough, ME Maine Geological Survey Introduction Western Beach is a small pocket beach between Ferry Rock to the northwest and the Prouts Neck headland to the southeast (Figure 1). It lies on the eastern side of the Scarborough River inlet, across the inlet from Pine Point, and is adjacent to the municipally Ferry Beach owned Ferry Beach. Although Western Beach is privately owned by the Prouts Neck Country Club, it is open to the public and is a popular Ferry Rock destination for sunbathers, fishermen and beach and dog walkers. In a larger context, the Pine Point Scarborough River and Western Beach are located at the northern end of Saco Bay, Maine’s largest expanse (approximately 7 miles) of contiguous beach and dunes in the State.

This application by the Town of Cumberland is for the Payson Pier Replacement Project. The work funded by the grant will include field survey, engineering design, and permitting of a new pier to replace the existing 200’ span timber pier at a large public waterfront site recently acquired by the Town. The existing pier is badly deteriorated, and as a result it is not suitable for public use in it’s present state. The amount of funding requested through the Shore and Harbor Planning Grant program is $20,906. This will be matched by an additional $4,094 from the Town’s Harbor and Waterfront fund to cover the cost of professional services to be provided by a consultant engineering firm and an in-kind contribution of $2,875 for Town oversight and project management for a Total Project cost of $27,875. Bill Shane, PE, is the Town Manager and will function as the Project Manager for this project. The project will be completed in partnership with Baker Design Consultants, a local engineering firm with expertise in design of municipal piers and past experience at this site, and Titcomb Associates, a surveyor who has performed a significant amount of survey of the Payson property in the past years.

  • NOTICE to FLOOD INSURANCE STUDY USERS Communities Participating in the National Flood Insurance Program Have Established Reposit
    NOTICE TO FLOOD INSURANCE STUDY USERS Communities participating in the National Flood Insurance Program have established repositories of flood hazard data for floodplain management and flood insurance purposes. This Flood Insurance Study (FIS) may not contain all data available within the repository. It is advisable to contact the community repository for any additional data. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) may revise and republish part or all of this Preliminary FIS report at any time. In addition, FEMA may revise part of this FIS report by the Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) process, which does not involve republication or redistribution of the FIS report. Therefore, users should consult community officials and check the Community Map Repository to obtain the most current FIS components. Flood Insurance Rate Map panels for this community contain the most current information that was previously shown separately on the corresponding Flood Boundary and Floodway Map panels (e.g., floodways and cross sections). In addition, former flood hazard zone designations have been changed as follows.
