Gary distributed a survey to each of the twenty five or so homes on Merrimac St. There were five surveys returned and another five residents appeared at the Community and Economic Development Committee meeting on March 9th. The following reflects the results of the ten people that responded. 1. Would you favor a parking ban on Merriman St. from November 1st through Watch 31st annually? 5 -YES 4 -NO 1 -UNDECIDED 2. Would you like to see the direction of the one way traffic reversed so that vehicles would travel from Hancock St. to State St.? 0 -YES 30 -NO 0 -UNDECIDED Additional suggestions or comments that were made: - Would prefer that area was temporarily posted during snow storms - have the City develop/maintain the lot at 55-57 Merrimac and make it available for residents to use - use the lot at 263 State St. (corner of State and Merrimac) for after hours parking - plow the snow to the opposite side (left) of Merrimac St. February 28, 1994 Dear Resident 94-97 In the fall of 1993 a committee was appointed to take a comprehensive look at parking and traffic issues on the east side of Bangor. This committee has representatives from several city departments including police, fire, public works, engineering, and planning. One of the areas that has been given a great deal of thought is Merrimac St. Due to the narrow width (20 ft.) of Merrimac St., onstreet parking has been creating problems with the passage of emergency, vehicles and snow plows. The problem appears to be worse in the wintertime because the houses are so close to the street that public works is unable to push the snow far enough off the road. Therefore, the committee has made the recommiendatlon to prohibit all parking on Merrimac St. from November 1st to March 31st, annually. At a meeting of the Community and Economic Development Committee on February 23, 1994, the police department was asked to survey the residents and look for alternatives. _There will be a meeting of the Community and Economic Development Committee on Wednesday, March 9, 1994 at 5x00 W. to discuss this The meeting will be Mid in the council chambers (3rd floor) at city hall, 73 Harlow St. This meeting is open to the public, and your opinion or concern may be expressed at that time. If you cannot attend, or have questions o comments, please contact Gary Jewell, Parking Supervisor, at 947-7397 or 947-7382 ext. 232.
