He drafted a resolution declaring the city’s intent to explore the benefits of passenger rail service and will seek the endorsement of fellow councilors at Tuesday night’s council meeting. Augusta councilors approved a similar resolution in December.

Meanwhile, Mayhew said Maine Rail Group Inc., a volunteer organization that seeks to promote awareness of the contribution railroads make to the state’s economy, will make a presentation Tuesday. He also invited Sustain Mid Maine and an official from the city of Augusta to Tuesday’s meeting. A state DOT official and representative of Northern New England Passenger Rail are scheduled to speak to the council April 21, he added.
