Bucksport Offering Free Land To Businesses Wanting To Move To The Town
BUCKSPORT (NEWS CENTER) -- Businesses must first qualify to get a plot at the Buckstown Heritage Park. It's a value of up to $30,000.
Bucksport has plots of land in the Buckstown Heritage Park that are available. In addition to getting the land for free, businesses also get town water, sewer, three phase power, and natural gas.
Union River Boat Company moved from Ellsworth two years ago into a larger building at the business park. The company says with more space and more workers it has doubled it's business since the move.
To qualify, businesses must be able to diversify the tax base, and demonstrate the ability to create quality jobs. Dave Milan, Bucksport Economic Development Director, says Bucksport's central location close to Bangor, Ellsworth, Camden and Bar Harbor is a big benefit to businesses.
Eight of nine plots have been filled in the first phase, but the second phase is ready for more businesses. Phase 2 has 20 acres, and the town isn't sure how many plots it will create.Quoted from http://www.wlbz2.com/news/article.aspx?storyid=70905:
