Title, Order
Authorizing City Engineer to Begin the Process of Discontinuance of a Portion of Carver Street
Summary
This Order would begin the process of discontinuance of a portion of Carver Street in accordance
with 23 M.R.S.A. § 3026-A. Carver Street is currently a fifty foot right-of-way with an existing twelve
inch sewer main. The discontinuance proposes to reduce the width of the right-of-way by fifteen
feet on the east and west sides of the sewer main. The remaining twenty feet in the center would
be retained as a right-of-way for the maintenance of the sanitary sewer and public access. This is
more fully depicted on the attached Exhibit A.
23 M.R.S.A. § 3026-A requires the City Council to "file an order of discontinuance with the municipal
clerk," then hold a public hearing, and then vote on the order. That order of discontinuance is
attached hereto as Exhibit B.
This matter will return to the City Council on July 12, 2021 for a public hearing. It will return again
for a vote on the order of discontinuance on July 26, 2021. Additionally and before the July 12,
2021 date, the City Engineer will hold a public hearing and prepare a report for this Council's review.

Summary
07/12/2021
Map/Lot: N/A
This Order would discontinue the portion of the Carver Street Right -of -Way that is depicted in the
attached Exhibit A. That portion of the Carver Street Right -of -Way to be discontinued is the fifteen
feet inward from either bound in the segment of the Carver Street Right -of -Way that lies between
Lincoln Street and Buck Street. As it currently stands, said portion is unimproved and fifteen feet
wide. After this discontinuance only the center twenty foot wide section of the portion will remain a
right-of-way.
The abutting property owners are Karyn Young and Alyssa Snow of 262 Lincoln Street; Galen Swan,
Jr. and Anne Swan of 269 Buck Street; Leland Carlisle and Judith Carlisle of 287 Buck Street; and
Michael McCarthy, Jr. and Dora McCarthy of 286 Lincoln Street.
There are no bridges on the proposed portion of the Carver Street Right -of -Way to be discontinued,
and all abutting property owners have access to their properties by other means. This portion of the
Carver Street Right -of -Way is not improved. Accordingly, no damages are to be paid to the abutting
property owners.
While the center twenty -foot wide section of this portion of the Carver Street Right -of -Way will be
kept as a right-of-way, no public easement is to be retained upon the discontinued portion and said
discontinued portions are to become part of their corresponding abutting lots.

CITY OF BANGOR ORDER 07/12/2021
Date: 07/12/2021
Item No:
Assigned to Councilor:
Order of Discontinuance of a Portion of the Carver Street Right -of -Way
Whereas, the Carver Street right-of-way lying southerly of Lincoln Street and northerly of Buck Street is
currently fifty feet wide;
Whereas, that section of right-of-way remains unimproved, and there is no plan to improve it;
Whereas, the City maintains sewer and storm water utilities that run through the center of said section of the
Carver Street right-of-way;
Whereas, some citizens of the City use said section of the Carver Street right-of-way as a walking path;
Whereas, retaining the center twenty -feet of that portion of the right-of-way will retain the right-of-way's
utility as a walking path for the public and allow the City to maintain its underground utilities in that location;
Whereas, the abutting property owners to said section of the right-of-way are Karyn Young and Alyssa Snow
of 262 Lincoln Street; Galen Swan, Jr. and Anne Swan of 269 Buck Street; Leland Carlisle and Judith Carlisle
of 287 Buck Street; and Michael McCarthy, Jr. and Dora McCarthy of 286 Lincoln Street;
Whereas, the abutting property owners are all served by other rights -of -way being either Lincoln Street or
Buck Street;
Be it Ordered by the City Council of the City of Bangor that the portion of the Carver Street Right -of -Way
depicted on the Attached Exhibit A is hereby discontinued. Further, the associated public easement for that
portion is also discontinued. Because all abutting property owners are served by other public rights -of -way
and the portion herein discontinued remains unimproved, no damages are to be paid. For the sake of clarity,
the portion the Carver Street Right -of -Way to be discontinued is that portion that is fifteen feet inward from
either bound of said right-of-way and lying both southerly of the Lincoln Street right-of-way and northerly of
the Buck Street right-of-way. The center twenty feet of the Carver Street right-of-way in said area (southerly
of Lincoln Street and northerly of Buck Street) is to be retained as a right-of-way.
The City's official road map is to be amended accordingly.
