Pursuant to 29-A MRSA § 2382, the undersigned municipal officers of the City of Bangor agree
that a construction overlimit permit will be issued to the Contractor for the above -referenced
project allowing the contractor to use overweight equipment and loads on municipal ways.
The municipality may require the contractor to obtain a satisfactory bond pursuant to
29-A MRSA § 2388 to cover the cost of any damage that might occur as a result of the
