Title, Ordinance
Amending Chapter 23, Boards, Committees and Commissions, Article IV Penjajawoc Marsh/Bangor Mall
Management Commission, Section 23-24 Establishment; Membership, by Changing the Number of Membership
and Section 23-25 Guidelines for Selection of Members, by Changing the Qualification of Membership
Summary
This Ordinance amendment will change the qualifications of membership on the Penjajawoc Marsh/Bangor Mall
Management Commission. Currently the Commission has 12 regular members. Three must own property in the
Penjajawoc Marsh/Bangor Mall area, three must operate a business or have a commercial development interest in the
area, three must be members of the Bangor Land Trust, and three must be active members of locally or nationally
recognized environmental organizations. In recent years, it has been challenging to find interested applicants that fit
these specific requirements.
This amendment will change the makeup of the board to be seven at -large members. It is anticipated that this
commission will continue to evolve as part of the comprehensive plan update.
This item was reviewed and unanimously recommended for approval by the Government Operations Committee on
April 19, 2023.
