provided in this section that is sponsored by the municipality.
The following uses are expressly prohibited: residential
development of any type; development for overnight accommodations,
except camping; development for any type of commercial service
center, shops, restaurants or other commercial development; or
development for any purpose that will change the natural character
of the area. Failure to comply with any of the conditions or
restrictions, in whole or in part, contained in this section causes
the property to revert to the State; and be it further

 
Sec. 5. Transfer of previously developed property. Resolved: That developers
of the lands immediately abutting the west line of the property
may have inaccurately established the boundary line of the
property, causing development to occur improperly on a portion of
the property. The Town of Carrabassett Valley or the Director of
the Bureau of Parks and Lands may sell or exchange lands that
have been improved and built upon as of the effective date of
this resolve in settlement of this defect. Such developed
portions are not covered by the deed restrictions in section 4;
and be it further

 
Sec. 6. Management operations. Resolved: That any management
operations, including without limitation, timber harvesting
operations, that the State may have scheduled before the signing
of an agreement between the Director of the Bureau of Parks and
Lands on behalf of the State and the Town of Carrabassett Valley
must be allowed to proceed and all revenue derived from these
operations accrues to the State until the delivery of the deed.

 
SUMMARY

 
This resolve permits the Director of the Bureau of Parks and
Lands within the Department of Conservation to negotiate the
transfer of certain public reserved land owned by the State to
the Town of Carrabassett Valley. It requires the proceeds from
the sale to be used to acquire additional real estate in the same
county as the transferred land for the same purposes. The land
to be transferred is subject to restrictions on development and
must be used for public outdoor recreation.
