Eaton, Code Enforcement Officer for the City of Bangor, indicated that he bad pictures of the subject property and asked the City Solicitor to pass them around after he had read the descriptions on them. in 1976 the ell of this building was condemned by this Council. Lacer, we found out that the Bangor Savings Bankhadartgage o the building. Also, it was learned that the FBA had insured the mortgage.

'The mortgagee, Bangor Savings Bank, hasrequested a 30 -day extension of the time to appeal, to July 24, 1976, in order that this insuring office may request advice from our Central Office.ag The Housing Mane- tDirector, Realty Specialist, and Loan Specialist from this office have visited the property, and it is the opinion of these 3 staff members that the property in its entirety should be demolished."

Chairman Soucy asked if anyone else had any questions and if not, we would close the public heating. John Mc%ay, in his capacity as attorney for the Bangor Savings Bank, stated that hewas appearing not i apposition c the Order, but to indicate the positionof the Bank. The bank has submitted the abstract to Mr. Miller and the mortgage is under foreclosure which will ripen in September. The bank, in the meantime, will Iain the property. However, in September it will be turned over to the M. He again commented that be was not objecting to passage of the condem- nation order. Chairman Soucy asked if the building was occupied Mr. McKay responded that the building was ort occupied as a dwelling. However, it is broken into a lot and several times the bank has had to go up and replace boards. It has been a real problem. Chairman Soucy was a little confused as to Mr. McKay's position. Mr. McKay stated that the Bangor Savings Bank does have an interest in the property be haven't neglected the property. We have of asked for a delay. it was his understanding that there may have been same minor defects in the order last year and this is why the building as a whole is being considered tonight. The public hearing was declared closed. Councilor Zendzfan I move for passage of the hider. Councilor Casa: Second. It's a vote unless doubted, ids a vote. (8:31 p.m.) Prepared by Terri L.
