A Concept Plan for First Roach Pond - Expiring January 22, 2022
Frenchtown Township, Piscataquis County
Zoning Petition ZP 659-B
Last Updated: September 2, 2021
The Commission was notified on December 2, 2020 that Weyerhaeuser does not wish to renew the First Roach Pond Concept Plan when it expires on January 24, 2022. The Commission has therefore begun the process of preparing replacement zoning appropriate for the existing resources and development that has occurred over the life of the concept plan.
The Plan covers approximately 1,436 acres in Frenchtown Township, Piscataquis County; the majority of which is located within 500 feet of the shoreline of First Roach Pond. Expiration of the Plan will not affect subdivisions or development already reviewed and approved under the Plan, including six subdivisions and associated residential development. Permanent conservation measures implemented under the Plan will remain, including deed covenants, deed restrictions, and common open space within approved subdivisions; conservation covenants restricting development on 494 acres of surrounding timberland; and 525 acres of conservation easement on the shoreline of First Roach Pond.
Materials relating to the petition will be posted here as they become available.
