An ambitious project to redevelop a Moosehead Lake region ski resort crumbled because the developer’s financing collapsed, according to the property owner.
The development team working to revive a partially defunct ski resort in Piscataquis County told Eastern Maine Development Corp.
The ski area's current owner is fighting a state lawsuit, and prospective developers say they no longer have a clear path for acquiring the site to begin construction.
Members of the Land Use Planning Commission ultimately agreed to give the developers the permits they need to begin rebuilding the ski resort on Big Moose Mountain near Greenville.
The public will have a chance to weigh in on the proposed year-round ski resort in Piscataquis County potentially influencing the next steps of the project during a hearing on June 7.
The Maine Land Use Planning Commission voted in February to hold a public hearing after two parties, the residents group Moosehead Region Futures Committee and Greenville-area resident Karyn Ellwood, filed requests in January.
