Public forum on draft Winnick Woods master plan set for
June 8
The Cape Elizabeth Conservation Commission invites the public to comment
on the draft Winnick Woods Master Plan on Wednesday, June 8, from 7-9 p.m.
at the Town Hall.
The Cape Elizabeth Conservation Commission has prepared a draft master plan
for Winnick Woods, a 57-acre property owned by the Town of Cape Elizabeth
and located on Sawyer Road. (See map below)
The draft master plan respects the restrictions on the property that it be
used for passive recreation and lays out a network of trails on the property
and a management plan to preserve a variety of landscapes and wildlife habitats.
The Conservation Commission is requesting public comments on the draft master
plan before they send their recommendations to the Town Council for further
review. The public forum will include an overview of the draft plan and a
presentation from the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service on New England Cottontail
Wildlife Habitat.

also available for review in the Assessing/Codes/Planning office at Town
Hall, 320 Ocean House Road. More information is also available from the
Town Planner, 799-0115.
