PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • January 28, 2023
It appears the state wants to claw back the $10 million commitment they made in the last legislative session to help provide funds for the badly needed Portland Harbor dredging project. In order to keep the harbor piers functioning, 70 years of silt needs to be removed. I thank Mayor Kate Snyder for telling the state, and Gov. Mills, to leave the $10 million they committed to the project in place. The Legislature should not fall back on their commitments. Let us keep the “Port” in Portland! ~ Jerry Angier, Scarborough
