October 24, 1986 The charge of,the MDDAB is to advise the City Council on matters pertaining to the establishment of a development district for the Bangor Center Revitalization Area or any portion thereof to plan a development program and to maintain the program after implementa- tion. After discussion of the types of programs and related takes to which this charge could be applied and after reviewing consultant studies pertaining to Bangor, management programs in other cities, and the work of local committees over the past eight years in Bangor, the MDDAB has determined that anagement program for the Bangor Center is the most critical need Iin the revitalization process and that the tax assessment method is the most effective, fair (and indeed the only) way to implement such a program. Further, the MDDAB decided that other complementary districts could be addressed after disposition of the recommendations made pertain- ing to the management program. Therefore, we recommend the following: That the City of Bangor set up a tax assessment district coinciding with the Bangor Center Revitalization Area for the Purpose of establishing a Bangor Center Management Program, That this program be administered by a new corporation, the Bangor Center Management Corp., with a board of directors composed of people associated with the program area as described in the attached document; That the attached Goals a Objectives, Budget and Job Description be adopted and that the new corporation board and.. the manager set the priorities for implementation of the management program; and That the Bangor City Council have association and communication with the management program through the two ex -officio board members from the City Staff and MDDAB, through reports from the MDDAB to the council as required by the Council, and by annual review of the program and recommendations for the coming year subsequent to a vote by the Council On whether or not the program continue for another year. We request consideration of those recommendations in two phases. First we request that the City Council allow for the Preparation of material for public notice, for publication of public notice, and for public hearing as described in Title 30 M.R.S.A. section 4865 subsection 3. We respectfully request that the public hearing be held after the new City Council is seated and on or before December 10, 1986 to allow those people affected by the program the opportunity to participate in the public hearing. We. feel this time frame is important due to the nature of the business of many affected people and due also to the subsequent holiday seasons. Secondly, we request that, if after public hearing, the Council finds merit in and sufficient support for the management program, the City Council pass an Order to allow the implementation of the program for one year. Further, we request the passage of a Council Resolution showing commitment to the program for at least three years as an indication that it will take some time for program start-up and actual results.
