CITY QERK Sanger, the Center of Maine -the Gateway to Maine's North Woedt and Seashore Raern 194 of angor, Mame January 5, 1961 To: City Manager From: Building Inspector In Be: Amending Section 1002 of the Building Code In 1954, an amendment was added to the Building Code, Section 1002, making the use of metal chimneys legal to us in the City of Bangor; but with some restrictions relating to the size and type of building in which it can be used. At that time, metal or factory built chimneys were a new item on the market, but as time went on, new methods and materials were introduced, thus making these chimneys more practical and now they rate very high in the construction field. I have been in contact with other cities in Maine, most recently with Portland, and also with other cities in the New England area end find they now allow this type of chimney if it has been approved and bears the Underwriters' seal of approval.
