Please check out the shoreland zoning listed under the LakeLife.  This is an important document that explains what is allowed based on town and state statutes.  If you don’t understand any component please contact our Newport town CEO (code enforcement officer) Al Tempesta at (207) 368-3264.  There are a lot of restrictions and requirements to do anything with the 250 ft. of shoreland zoning and especially in the 100 ft.  shorefront area.
