BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, THAT inasmuch as the interests acquired herein are those remaining after prior acquisitions of the City, the amount of damages constituting just compensation for the acquisition of the entire fee simple interest in the above-described property is $1.00, except as to a 16′ x 20.16′ piece of the described parcel located to the rear of the former Dora C. Broder lot adjacent to the Masonic Temple Association property, not previously acquired by the City, title to which is unknown; for which the sum of $327.00 is awarded as damages constituting just compensation for the acquisition of the described price. STATEMENT OF FACT: 30-A M.R.S.A. 5204 authorizes municipalities to acquire by
eminent domain property, or interests therein, in designated slum or blighted areas. In order to exercise this power, the Bangor City Council must first adopt a `’Resolution of Condemnation” to be served upon the property owner(s). After service is completed and a public hearing advertised and held, the Resolution is resubmitted to the City Council for its approval or disapproval. Condemnees who receive personal notice then have three months in which to appeal the City’s taking; condemnees who do not receive personal notice have twelve months in which to appeal the City’s taking. The purpose of this eminent domain action is to acquire any private interests outstanding in the premises after previous acquisitions by the City of Bangor. The purpose of the present acquisition is to clear title to a small piece of the “B-4″ redevelopment parcel which was not included when this parcel was originally acquired by the City. The piece affected is a 16′ x 20.16′ piece of one of the original losts in the area, legal title to which is unclear, based on a search of records at the Penobscot County Registry.
