Vafiades Attorney for Bangor Dock Facilities LVV/lmc Cc Erik SLumpfel, Esq., City Solicitor Floyd Warren Jeanne Twitchell 92-212 DEFINE FILE TYPE MDITIMATE END DEFINE April 1, 1992 Name/Address Dear Name 1 Bangor Dock Facilities, Inc., owner of the docks formerly operated by Robert Twitchel L, has notified the City that it does not intend to reinstall the docks in the Penobscot River this boating season and has offered the City the opportunity to purchase the dock facility. The City Council would like to see continued operation of the facility, but understandably is not aouious to acquire the docks if operation of the facility would require a City Subsidy. To date we have been contacted by four boat owners who would commit to renting space on the docks for the season if the City acquired and operated the facility. The City needs dock fee revenue from approximately fifteen boat owners to operate the facility without subsidy. To assist the City in estimating the demand for dock space, and the probability of its successful operation without City subsidy, I am requesting that you contact us am soon as possible, but not later than April 10th, to let us know if you would rent dock space for the season from the City. The proposed fee for the season would be $55 to $60 par foot of boat length, subject to approval by the City Council. We would like to continue to build on the success of public usage of the waterfront, and your response is crucial to this effort. Please contact the Community Development office with your response by calling 207-945-4400 extension 211 (or 207-945-4420 extension 211 or 214 if you have a touch-tone phone), or by sending a postcard or letter to, Community Development Department City Nall 11 Earlax Streat Bangor, Yaima 04401 or by dropping by our office on the second floor of City Nall. 92-212 71 if you know of any other beaters that might be interested, please have than contact us. with your cooperation and participation, we hope to be able to continue offering the same (or better) services than you have experienced in previous years.
