And that the City Engineer met at the time and place of meeting specified To the notices and proceeded to discontinue said Thatcher Street as follows: Being that portion of Thatcher Street which was laid out and accepted as a public way on July 10, 1900, and which extends south- east from the southeasterly sideline of Webster Avenue for a dis- tance of approximately 2235 feet to the northerly sideline of Inter- state Highway 1-395. No parson or persons appeared at the time and place set for the meeting to object to the discontinuance or to claim damages as a result of said discontinuance. Inasmuch as this portion of Thatcher Street has never been developed as a roadway, and since all of the abutting property is presently owned by the City of Bangor, no dam- ages are recommended for said discontinuance. It Is also recommended that the existing pole line owned by the Bangor Hydro-Mactrlc Company and the existing 12 inch water main owned by the Bangor Water District which are located within the right-of-way be allowed to remain, and that the owners be granted access to these utilities for necessary maintenance and repair until each time as the utilities are discontinued or relocated. To the City Council Page 2 Inasmuch as the land occupied by the above-described portion of Thatcher Street is to be used for the relocation of Route 1-A and for the construction of the municipal golf course, and the right-of-way would be of no benefit to the public In its present status, the City Engineer recommends that it be permanently dis- continued and removed from the Official Map. An accurate plan accompanies this report. Respectfully submitted, John 1.�rawley 1� John En Frawley City ffigineer JTF:1 Enc.
