After executive session, Bangor committee authorizes developer extension and forwards property sale to counsel

The Bangor City Economic Development Committee voted to enter executive session under statutory authority and, upon returning to open session, recorded two motions.

The committee moved into executive session "pursuant to 1 MRSA, section 4056 c, activation," and the chair conducted a roll-call vote with each member recorded as voting yes to enter the closed session.

After the executive session the committee recorded a motion authorizing the city manager or a designee to grant a developer collaborative a 120-day extension on a development and accompanying pro forma; the motion was moved and seconded and advanced. The committee also moved to forward the proposed sale of 240 Grove Street to counsel for review and approval and seconded that motion; the chair then adjourned the meeting.

The transcript records the motions and seconds but does not include a public roll-call for the two post-executive-session items, and no dollar amount or buyer for the 240 Grove Street sale was specified in the open transcript.

Next steps: manager or designee to process the extension; city counsel to review the proposed sale of 240 Grove Street and report back to the committee.
