Authorizing Execution of an Agreement with the Town of Orono to Operate the Black Bear Orono Express
Summary
This order will authorize an agreement between the City of Bangor, Community Connector and the
Town of Orono for operation of the Black Bear Orono Express (Shuttle). The Shuttle service has
been operating in Orono since 2009 and there is a need for some changes to the existing
agreement.
If approved, this agreement will update the terms and conditions upon which the City of Bangor shall
operate a transit bus service for passengers (the "Shuttle") between points determined by the
University of Maine and the Town of Orono. Specifically, this agreement proposes terms and
conditions upon which the shuttle buses will be stored at the Orono Public Works Facility on Kelley
Road and accessed by the staff of the City of Bangor. Additionally, the Town of Orono has agreed
to provide fuel at cost. Total costs for the Shuttle service will continue to be split between the Town
of Orono and the University of Maine with no subsidies from the City of Bangor or Federal Transit
Administration. This item will be reviewed in Council workshop on November 27, 2017.
