📰 News we're reading

• Zoning change gives Kingfish Maine 30 months to begin work (themainemonitor.org) — Jonesport officials have secured state approval to change the town’s Shoreland Zoning Ordinance, giving the proposed Kingfish Maine aquaculture plant 30 months to show tangible construction work instead of one year to reach 30 percent completion. The new rules also pause that clock during any future legal challenges, though Kingfish’s ability to build remains uncertain due to financing and market conditions.
