Dear Mr. Barren:
As you know, the University will conduct a study of available options regarding the
dome: location of the campus of the College of Bangor. I am organizing a committee to identify
the advantages and disadvantages of each option. As such, I would and you to nominate
someone to represent the City of Bangor and the Bangor International Airport on this committee.
The College of Bangor Review Committee will be comprised of representatives of the
University and general community, and will be asked to review such issues as cost, bonding,
pecking, space for current programs and failure growth, impact on enrollments, impact on the
community, potential for support from the City, Legislature, University of Maine System,
Congress, federal development agencies, etc. The Committee will consider renovations of
current facilities (King Report); building a new Lewiston-Aubum College type facility on the
current site; building a connecting facility between the YMCA and chapel (plus renovations to
the YMCA and chapel); selling the campus to the airport, city, etc., and relocating the College of
Bangor to dovmtown Bangor, EMTC or other Bangor area locations; and other options.
I shall ask the Committee to prepare areport which articulates the advantages and
disativantages of each option for my review in early March,1998. I will then discuss the report
with the University and general community, prior to making a recommendation to the Chancellor
of the University of Main, system.
I hope your organization will participate in this study. Please let me know the name,
address, telephone and fax numbers of your nominee.
