New committee to help shape Scarborough’s new downtown
Share
SCARBOROUGH A new group of Scarborough residents has started weighing in on what a new downtown should eventually look like.
The Downtown Development Committee was scheduled to meet for the first time Jan. 7. Town Manager Tom Hall said the committee and its work is a part of the 2018 tax finance district agreement between the town and developers Peter and Michael Richaud, and William, Marc and Rocco “Roccy” Risbara III.
The developers bought the 479-acre parcel collectively referred to as The Downs in 2018, and have since been working on a multi-stage commercial, residential and industrial development plan.
