Hwy 236/Dennett Road Hydrologic Watershed Study Public Input Session - Tonight, Wednesday, March 22, 2023

Phase 2 of the Highway 236/Dennett Road Hydrologic Watershed Study is underway and the Town of Kittery would like to hear from the community.  Join the Town and the Hydrologic Watershed Study project team for a public input session tonight, Wednesday, March 22, 2023 at 5:30 PM in Council Chambers, located at 200 Rogers Road, Kittery, ME.  The event will be broadcast on Channel 22, Facebook and live broadcast from the Town’s website.

The public input session is an exciting opportunity for the public to hear from the project team about the preliminary results of the resource inventory, modeling efforts, and nutrient pollutant load modeling. Additionally, the public input session will provide an introduction to the draft report.

During review of the preliminary modeling results, the project team will identify areas and components of the existing drainage system with potential for localized flooding under existing conditions and multiple build-out scenarios. The report will provide the Town and its residents with a better understanding of the impacts of future development, as well as what alternatives would be best suited to mitigate these conditions.

Community members who are unable to attend the public input session are encouraged to share comments and questions in advance that may be incorporated into the meeting discussion.  Comments and questions should be sent to Public Works Inspector, Jessa Kellogg at jkellogg@kitteryme.org by noon on the day of the meeting (March 22, 2023).
