Newspaper Reports on Construction Delays
The Bangor Daily News interviewed Janet Waldron, UMaine vice president for administration and finance, about how the university is coping with planned and in-progress construction projects on campus after Gov. Paul LePage blocked the sale of state bonds approved by Maine voters in 2010. Major projects are ongoing and several minor projects are being delayed until the state funds are released, Waldron said. At least one building project is expected to save $50,000 a year in energy costs.
