Maine Shoreland zoning: what it allows on a lot
Shoreland zoning is Maine law, and the official source is at maine.gov.
Within 250 feet of a lake, pond, river or the ocean, and 75 feet of many streams, town shoreland zoning limits building and clearing.
Whether it applies to one lot turns on where the lot is and what it is zoned; the city, county or state office named in the law decides. Mapped areas are approximate. This is a plain reading of public law with its source, not legal advice.
