City of Biddeford, Maine Open Space Plan
City of Biddeford, Maine Open Space Plan Biddeford Pool Marshes & Wildlife Habitat Prepared by the City of Biddeford Open Space Committee November 2012 PREFACE When I was first asked to be on the Biddeford Open Space ad-hoc Committee by Marcel Polak of the Maine Association of Conservation Commissions on behalf of then, Mayor Joanne Twomey, I ĞŶƚŚƵƐŝĂƐƚŝĐĂůůLJƐĂŝĚ͞LJĞƐ͘͟ I was reasonably excited but cautiously optimistic. I have a very strong passion for land conservation and my knowledge of the subject is constantly evolving. After the introductions and brief conversations in our first meeting back in January 2009, the topic of the need for a chairperson came up. I now ƌĞĐĂůůĞǀĞƌLJďŽĚLJ͛ƐĞLJĞƐƚƵƌŶŝŶŐƚŽǁĂƌĚŵĞĂŶĚĂƐƚŚĞLJƐĂLJ͞ŝƚŝƐĂůů ŚŝƐƚŽƌLJ͘͟ I graciously accepted and the reality of taking charge of organization, delegation, research, setting meetings and pushing for a draft of the Open Space Plan took hold. Now, close to three years later, and countless number of meetings, walks, and drafts, we have an Open Space Plan for the citizens of Biddeford. As you read through this document, it is fluid and can be modified, added and changed. The data will need to be updated as time goes by. Parcels will be sold, merged, conserved, developed or remain the same. Land is static. dŚŝƐƌĞƉŽƌƚŝƐŐŽŝŶŐƚŽďĞĞůĞĐƚƌŽŶŝĐĂůůLJƌĞƉƌŽĚƵĐĞĚŽŶŝƚLJŽĨŝĚĚĞĨŽƌĚ͛ƐǁĞďƐŝƚĞ where changes can be made. We have had public input and we are looking for more feedback. Biddeford is on the move and adapting to the constant demand of undeveloped space on untapped resources. dŚŝƐŝƐŶŽƚĂƌĞƉŽƌƚŽŶ͞ƐƚŽƉĂůůŐƌŽǁƚŚĂŶĚŬĞĞƉĂůůŐƌĞĞŶ͘͟ It is an inventory, a resource item, and a foundation guide for future land conservation and planning efforts. It is also an outreach to landowners to offer them options on their choice of land use. -
