Jan. 1 is the deadline for naming new bridge

BANGOR — Anyone wanting to submit a name for the new Bangor-Brewer bridge must do so by Wednesday, Jan. 1, according to state Rep. Richard H. Campbell of Holden.

All names will be considered by a search committee, Campbell said. The bridge will be completed by mid-1997.

The committee’s recommendation for the new name will be sponsored by Campbell as a bill in the 118th Legislature.

The committee’s nine members, including Campbell, who is chairman, include two from the Bangor area legislative delegation, one councilor from Bangor and one from Brewer. The city councils also appointed a member-at-large from their communities, and the Brewer and Bangor historical societies provided members.

To submit a name, contact Brewer City Clerk Arthur Verow at 989-7050 or write to him at City Hall, 80 North Main St., Brewer 04412-0239. Campbell may be reached at 848-0871 or 989-6055 or by writing to him at Rural Route 1, Box 8575, Holden 04429.
