Snowe-Mello said she too valued the state's lakes
Snowe-Mello said she too valued the state's lakes and ponds, but that shoreland zoning puts too many restrictions on property owners, who can't build or use their land the way they see fit.
"Even President Theodore Roosevelt, who was a strong environmentalist, recognized that the right to own property came before environment issues," she said.
Snowe-Mello said she planned to amend her bill on enforcement of environmental infractions so that the five-year statute of limitation doesn't kick in until after a violation is reported. The bill currently states that the enforcement limit triggers when the violation occurs.

Timberlake’s bill would essentially reduce the radius to 100 feet, about one-third of the size of a football field.
