Wow. I don't know whether to classify this as beaurocratic incompetence, bloat, or malice.

  If it's any consolation, Brunswick probably wont win the bid. Amazon will probably pick a much larger city in the Eastern US that has a healthier/larger talent pool.

    Brunswick does have a lot of cheap land - at least by urban standards, and it's a stone's throw from Portland. I haven't been following the news back home, but I've got to imagine that this involved the old Brunswick Naval Air Station location. They've been trying to follow the model Portsmouth is charting with the now-closed Pease Air Force Base, but with less success.

      Up here, we still consider Brunswick to be Northern Massachusetts. Why does that matter? Nowhere in what my neighbors consider Maine actually wants Amazon. But, BNAS might be a brilliant location for it.
