UMaine Center on Aging presents ‘livability’ survey to Bangor committee, BDN reports
The Bangor Daily News announced results of a citywide “livability” survey were released Wednesday in a preliminary report, closing the first phase of a project to improve Bangor’s living environment for residents of all ages. Members of the Bangor Livable Communities Committee gathered to review the report, which was presented by staff from the University of Maine Center on Aging, according to the article. The committee has been working to lay the groundwork for making the city safer, more navigable and more attractive for everyone who lives there, the article states. The preliminary findings suggest Bangor provides many resources to make the city safe and attractive to its seniors and other residents, but there is room for improvement, the BDN reported. Len Kaye, director of the UMaine Center on Aging, said a more detailed report will be released before the end of December.
