Bangor council postpones ethics-board-related order concerning Councilor Wayne Mallard after executive session
Summary
After moving into executive session under 1 MRSA §4056 for personnel and solicitor consultation, the council returned and voted to postpone consideration of ethics-related council order 25-282 regarding Councilor Wayne Mallard’s conduct at an August 14, 2025 historic preservation commission meeting to the next council meeting.
Following an executive session convened under 1 M.R.S.A. §4056(a) for personnel matters and §4056(e) for consultation with the solicitor, a council member moved to postpone consideration of council order 25-282, an ethics-board-related item concerning Councilor Wayne Mallard’s actions at an Aug. 14, 2025 historic preservation commission meeting.
The motion to postpone was seconded and put to a roll-call vote. The council recorded affirmative votes and the item was delayed until the next council meeting; the councilor whose conduct is the subject of the order did not participate in the vote, as noted in the workshop record.
A speaker moving the motion cited the specific 1 M.R.S.A. sections under which the executive session had been held. No final disciplinary action or further detail about the underlying allegations was disclosed in the public workshop record; the council voted only to postpone consideration of the ethics-related order to a later public meeting.
