About the Event:
City Hall to Construction Site: Bangor and Brewer leaders are pulling back the curtain on how municipal partnerships can help projects move from concept to completion. From navigating permitting to aligning infrastructure improvements and even leveraging the City of Bangor’s Foreign Trade Zone, this panel will give you an insider’s view of how local leadership can accelerate growth in the region.
Whether you’re a developer, lender, contractor, or simply curious about the forces shaping the Greater Bangor area, this session offers takeaways and a fresh perspective on what’s possible when municipalities and the private sector work together.
Join MEREDA for a conversation with Carollynn Lear, City Manager of the City of Bangor, Eric Glidden, City Manager of the City of Brewer, Biguita Hernandez-Smith, Economic Development Officer for the City of Bangor, and Andy Hamilton, Attorney at Katahdin Law. Moderating the program is Ben Sprague, Senior Lender at First National Bank.
