STATEMENT OF FACT
Sylvan Road was originally constructed by the City of Bangor to
serve Sylvania, Inc. Because most of the roadway, crossed land
owned by the State of Maine (EMVTI), and the urgency of caresses
tion did not permit the normal transfer of land to the City by
the State, the right-of-way was laid out by the State as a State
Aid Road. The subsequent extension to Diamond International was
also not formally accepted as a, public way, which necessitates
the above action. -
