Maine LD928 aims to maintain public access to town ways by preventing obstructions.
Maine LD928 amends the Maine Revised Statutes to ensure public access to town ways. It prohibits municipalities, county commissioners, or abutters from obstructing town ways if the municipal officers or county commissioners have declared the way discontinued by abandonment and retained a public easement for at least a specified period. If the easement is retained for less than this period, the same entities may remove obstructions with written permission from the municipal officers or county commissioners.
