Item No. 13-093
Date: February 25, 2013
Item/Subject: ORDINANCE, Amending Schedule XVI, One -Way Streets, as Referenced in
Chapter 291, Section 28, One -Way Streets, of the Code of the City of Bangor,
By Adding McKinley Street
Responsible Department: Engineering
Commentary: This Ordinance will amend Chapter 291, Section 28 of the Code by converting
McKinley Street to a one-way street. McKinley Street is a thirty-two foot wide street that runs
between Norfolk Street and Center Street. The availability of on -street parking and two travel
lanes make it difficult for cars to pass. During the summer months, some neighbors expressed
interest in converting this street from two-way to one-way, due to the narrow width. If
approved, direction of travel would be one-way from Norfolk Street easterly to Center Street.
The City Engineer convened a public meeting on January 10, 2013 to talk with neighbors about
making McKinley Street a one-way street. This item has been reviewed by the Infrastructure
Committee on December 11, 2012, and February 12, 2013 and recommended for approval.
