> Portland area (location TBD) to explore ideas about stormwater funding
> mechanisms, particularly utility district approaches. We spent a fair
> amount of time on this at our Interlocal Stormwater group meeting last
> week, and there was a lot of interest and a subcommittee was formed.
> Included in that group is Jim Katsiaficas from MMA, Todd Janeski, from
> SPO, who has done work on developing stormwater utility model ordinance,
> and Sam Merrill from the Environmental Finance Center at USM, who can
> provide technical support. There are also a number of representatives
> from the municipalities, and reps from the Portland Water District. There
> was agreement that taking a uniform approach to this will help it succeed
> politically.

> The group wants to invite folks from the other parts of the state to
> participate. Steve Ranney, from Auburn, is already involved. Let me know
> if either of you is interested in attending on June 2 and feel free to
> pass this along to any of the other Bangor-area MS4's.
