COMMUNITY MATTERS

ADU’s and Chebeague Are you interested in building an

Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) on your property? Would a tiny home work well in your backyard? Are you building a garage that might be a good location for a second floor apartment? How might ADU’s benefit our community and the need for year-round affordable housing? CICA would like to hold a workshop this summer to help the community learn about the new laws surrounding ADU’s and how they might benefit Chebeague. Interested in learning more? Contact Bill McKenzie at alaskamckenzie@gmail.com

Affordable Housing Update We have applied for funding from Maine State Housing Authority to build a new duplex rental unit here on Chebeague. We have a piece donated land which we plan to begin building these two year-round affordable rental units later this year. We will be looking for volunteers to assist in various parts of this build and look forward to working with the community to help bring these new housing opportunities to Chebeague. Keep an eye out for ways to get involved.
