The Maine State Planning Office (SPO) was created by the Legislature in 1968 as part of Maine's Executive Department. Its mission was to help build a sustainable future for Maine's communities, businesses and residents. The State Planning Office had four core duties assigned to it by statute that included coordinating the development of the state's economy and energy resources with the conservation of its natural resources; providing technical assistance to the Governor and Legislature by undertaking special studies and plans and preparing policy alternatives; providing technical assistance to towns and regions; and conducting continuing economic analyses, including economic forecasting. The Maine State Planning Office was eliminated effective July 1, 2012.
