Mesa Verde failed two of its last three inspections but was not told to shut down, city records show.

The project on Sheridan Street would use pier supports and feature a large top-floor unit built for a surgeon.

That would cause confusion, they say, but others back a bill calling for increased oversight amid rising Maine complaints.

A four-story project at Congress Street’s peak calls for 12 units as well as ground-floor retail space, and a smaller five-unit building will be built on a steep slope on Sheridan Street.

The $110 million plans call for redeveloping the site into a business, arts, sports and transportation complex.

The industry adamantly opposes a bill that would revive a system that gives all municipalities an oversight role.
