MAINE -- The City of Bangor is a great place to raise your family.
With the friendly citizens, superb business climate, open spaces overseen by a fantastic parks and recreation department, great public safety employees (selfless plug) and a fantastic school system, we rarely ask anyone to leave town and find somewhere else to call home.
Why should we?
In an effort to be completely transparent I can tell you that recently, we did forcefully relocate a citizen.
She did not listen to the good advice and was preparing to raise a family in a location that did not suit our vision for Stillwater Avenue. She refused to use the crosswalk and we felt when the kids came along, they would be getting in the way as well.
Animal Control Officer Trish Bruen told me the woman was ornery and it took some prodding to get her into the moving van. She now lives in a local bog.
No, it's not on the City Bus route but if she needs groceries or entertainment, there are places within swimming distance.
Just another service provided by our friendly, Trish.
The men and women of the Bangor Police Department urge everyone to keep their hands to themselves, leave other people's things alone and be kind to one another.
We will be here.
