Item No. 15-288
Date: August 24, 2015
Item/Subject: ORDER, Authorizing Agreement with Bangor Savings Bank for Improvements to City
Property (Map 042, Lot 236).
Responsible Department: Community & Economic Development
Commentary: This order will authorize and agreement with Bangor Savings Bank to make
improvements to a portion of a plaza located on City property (map 042, lot 236), adjacent to the
company's building on State Street. The current concrete is damaged, has shifted, and does not
properly drain causing hazardous walkways during the winter and significant ponding during rainy
weather. Bangor Savings Bank is proposing to replace the existing concrete and regrade the area to
facilitate drainage so runoff moves away from the building and to a direct path to the street. The City
Engineer and Director of Public Works met with Bangor Savings Bank staff to review the scope of the
improvements; both were satisfied with the proposal. All funding for the proposed improvements
would be provided by Bangor Savings Bank.
This item was reviewed and recommended for approval by the Business and Economic Development
Committee at its August 4, 2015 meeting.
