Title, Order
Amending the Parking Map of the City of Bangor to Change a Space on Franklin Street to be Compliant with
the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
This order amends the "Parking Map of the City of Bangor" as identified in Chapter 291, Article III
section 291-37. If approved, this order will make the identified parking space on Franklin Street to
be compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
The identified parking space is currently identified as a 2-hour space. The Board of Directors of the
Franklin Place Condo Association at 112 Franklin Street reached out to request this space be
changed to an ADA compliant spot. There is not an ADA space on that side of Franklin Street, and
the designation of this spot will accommodate visitors to Franklin Street and the surrounding
businesses and residences that would benefit from ADA compliant parking.
The City Engineer has reviewed this request and determined an ADA compliant space in the
requested location would be acceptable. The item was reviewed and recommended for approval by
the Downtown Parking Advisory Committee on January 14, 2020, and the Business and Economic
Development Committee on January 21, 2020.
This item addresses the Council goal to "Improve and Develop (a) Safe and Accessible Multi-Modal
Transportation System".
