Title, Order
Authorizing Disposition of City Property located on Finson Road - Map and Lot (R21-008)
The City recently acquired two adjacent parcels on Finson Road through matured tax liens (Council
Order #16-148 and Council Order #18-135). These parcels where merged into a two-acre parcel, Lot
R21-008 on the City of Bangor tax maps. Pursuant to our policy on property disposition, staff
approached the abutters. Initially both abutters expressed interest in purchasing one-half of the
property for $8,000 each, but one then decided not to pursue purchasing the property. Staff
approached the other abutter and an offer of $12,000 was made.
The remaining abutter, Robert Briggs,currently maintains a portion of the property, performing
mowing and light landscaping. His purpose in acquiring the property is to increase the size of his
property.
This order will authorize the City Manager to execute the documents necessary to transfer the
property to the Mr. Briggs. The final agreement will be in a form approved by the City Solicitors
Office.
This item was reviewed and recommended for approval by the Business & Economic Development
Committee at its October 2, 2018 meeting.
