Item No. 13-038
Date: December 10, 2012
Item/Subject: ORDINANCE, Amending Chapter 28, City Departments, Article XIII, Health
and Community Services Department, of the Code of the City of Bangor, By
Removing References to the City Dental Clinic
Responsible Department: Health and Community Services
Commentary:
This proposed Ordinance amendment is a housekeeping amendment that will remove references
to the City Dental Clinic. Due to financial constraints and the availability of care elsewhere in the
community, the City no longer has a City Dental Clinic or Children's Dental Clinic Trust. As a
result, the Health and Community Services staff is recommending that references to the City
Dental Clinic be removed. This Ordinance amendment was reviewed and recommended for
approval by the Government Operations Committee on December 3, 2012.
