90 MINUTE PARKING NOW AVAILABLE ON SOME DOWNTOWN STREETS

The previous 60 minute parking limit has been increased to 90 minutes on certain streets in downtown Bangor.  These include portions of Main, Central, Hammond, and State.  The intent of the change is to allow visitors additional time to shop, eat, and do business in downtown Bangor.  These areas are marked by signs.  As a reminder, if you need more time in downtown, the Pickering Square Parking Garage offers parking for free for up to two hours.               

   

CITY ADOPTS SUSTAINABLE BUILDING DESIGN STANDARDS

In pursuit of our goal to be the most environmentally friendly city in Maine, the Bangor City Council recently approved a new standard for City owned building construction and renovation projects. This standard, Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), requires the City and its architects, designers, and construction firms to integrate environmental design and energy efficiency into projects from their very beginning.  The result will be reduced energy use and operating costs through longer lived, environmentally friendly structures that are healthier places to work and visit.  Buildings consume: 70% of electricity and 12% of water; are responsible for 30% of greenhouse gas emissions; and produce 65% of all waste in the U.S. Such environmental impacts can only be reduced by integrating energy conservation and low impact environmental design into construction standards.  A copy of the City’s LEEDS policy can be found at: http://www.bangormaine.gov/cs_finance_env.php.
