It is heartening to see all these efforts to provide affordable housing on MDI.
It is a problem that will never be solved and not go away. MDI is too beautiful and too popular. Visitors will always come here and they will always think MDI is a better place to live and want to settle here. About half our land area is undevelopable for legal reasons - national park, conservation easement, environmental restrictions, and so on. In the other half site conditions raise construction costs.
It is approximately a 12 minute drive from Trenton,Maine. I would stop spending money on destroying wetlands and build housing there. Factor Electric bus services, and a deal with Trenton that would allow students the choice of either school.
Misread, honest mistake.

I'm sure there are grants as well. $24 million can buy a lot of land. https://afdc.energy.gov/vehicles/electric-school-buses-p8-m1#:~:text=In%20conclusion%20current%20electric%20school,higher%20than%20combustion%20bus%20operations.
