Subcommittee members did the painstaking work of gathering information, analyzing it, making recommendations, and putting all of that into writing. Planning consultants Esther Lacognata and Richard Rothe provided very important help over the course of the work. Jeffrey Hinderliter, Wiscasset town planner and economic development director, was a steadfast and patient guide.
