LURC appoints director; prepares for new role
The Maine Land Use Regulation Commission voted unanimously to appoint Nicholas Livesay of Brunswick as its director, according to a Maine Department of Conservation press release.
The seven-member board, which handles planning and zoning for Maine's unorganized areas, voted in favor of the appointment during its monthly meeting on Aug. 3 in Greenville after Livesay was nominated for the position by Conservation Commissioner Bill Beardsley.
Livesay, an attorney with Pierce Atwood LLP of Portland and a member of the firm's Environmental and Land Use Practice Group, will assume the director's position on Aug. 20 and lead LURC staff members as the commission transitions after Sept. 1 into the Land Use Planning Commission, as stipulated by legislation signed into law this past session by the Maine Legislature.
The commission is a nine-person board with eight of the commissioners nominated by county governments that represent the LUPC jurisdiction.
