Mr. Frederick W. Whittaker, Chairman
Bangor City Council
15 Fifth Street
Bangor, Maine
Dear Fred:
Several weeks ago I was given the opportunity to present, informally,
to the Council, the Urban Renewal Authority suggestion that there might be
Brit in Council consideration of a full time attorney to City Had. Our
thought was that should such a position be set up by the Council, the Authority,
by contract with the City, might use the services
ervrs of that office in supplying
the legal talent we will require. Whether or net you do have such a position
set up the attorney you might employ is a Council problem but I am quite sure
that your selection would meet all of our requirements.
Stillwater Park is our first project, as you know, so we don't
have yardsticks based on experience. But, the Federal people have set up
budgets for Stillwater that at least give us guides as to the amount of legal
work required along with the corresponding budgets approved by them.
The Stillwater Park Project carries a budget allowance for $28,100
for legal services covering general legal advice, property acquisitions,
condemnation procedures, land dispositions, management of awned properties,
title work, etc. We now think that this work will be spread over the next
30-36 months or at the expenditure rate of $775 to $935 per month.
At least for the time being, it would not be reasonable to hold
forth similar figures on the second project except that during the twelve month
planning period and before Council consideration of the second project,
allowances for legal work in the Planning Grant are to the order of $100 per
oath. If later approval of this second project works out, the corresponding
gross allowance for legal talent is $35,000.
Mr. Frederick W. Whittaker orale March 20, 1962 SHEET NO. 2
I would repeat that so far as the members of the Authority
are concerned we have no desire or intent of Imposing w the Council our
conclusion on the question d a full time attorney. We wish only to tell
you what we think are our requirements and indicate a willingness to have
the Authority utilize the services of a City Hall attorney in what might well,
we think, work into economies to both the City and the Authority.
V1ery truly yours,
�
R. N. Haskell
Chairman
Bangor Urban Renewal Authority
