Fortin Grant, Nue 1, 969 onstabl e Copy of this notice attached t4 house an Hauser Ave., June 11, 1969 MURIIC//C/II/yPPAA��L OFFIICEER�RS OF THE CITY OF BANGOR `�r^N'IW1�L��Chai ZXAc,065� Corner Sunset Avenue and union Street Bangor, Maine June 20, 1969 To the Chairmen and Members of the City Council, City of Bangor, Bangor, Maine, Gentlemen: Due to the fact that I had made previous commit events prior to the date set for the hearing regarding the house located on Sunset Avenue, in Bangor, Maine, and owned by Mr. R. Main Grant, I am unable to attend the hearing and, therefore, have asked that this letter be read at the hearing, I consider this house a great detriment to the neigh - hothead for the fallowing reasons: - 1. asons.1. I believe it to be a fire hazard as I understand the house has been broken intoseveral times, and hes been ransacked to a extent,andthat at one time same am tried to start a fire in it. 2. It is a blight to the neighborhood, not only because of the condition of it but the style of as house is not in keeping with other houses on the street. 3. It is my understanding that the inside of the house has deteriorated to quite an extent because of it being moved and left on rollers for approximately flight to nine months, without any heat in it, and with onend of the house being left open to the weather for that length of time. 4. I understand the City issued a permit to allow the house to be moved, with the condition that it be placed on a foundation within a six -months period, This has not hasp done. Being a property aw r It close proximity to this houme I feel net action should be taken by the proper authorities of the City of Bangor to see that this house is demolished as promptly a possible as, in my estimation, It is dawn -grading other properties in that locality.
