Tilton Zoning Board resigns in protest of
alleged hostile treatment by selectmen
BY DONNA RHODES
[email protected]
TILTON — The Town
of Tilton is looking for
a few good men and
women, five to be exact,
to fill a void caused by
the resignation of all
members of the town’s
Zoning Board of Adjustment following a
disagreement with the
board of selectmen.
The animosity between the two boards
began in June, when
a variance was granted for an automotive
business on Route 3 in
the Lochmere District
of Tilton. The ZBA reviewed the request to
open such a business
across from Winnisquam Auto, and after
considering all aspects
of the case and the fact
that it was in a Mixed
Use area, they voted to
approve the variance.
The selectmen, however, did not agree with
that decision once they
learned of it.
Selectman
Katherine Dawson, the representative to the town’s
Planning Board, sent a
memorandum about the
decision to her fellow
selectmen, who considered her points and concerns. They then opted
to consult an attorney to
review the matter and
help draft a request for
a rehearing on the vari-
ance issued.
As a result of that
challenge, though, the
ZBA in turn hired an
attorney of their own,
which selectmen did
agree they were entitled
to do.
Zoning Board Chairman Joseph Plessner
said that when his board
learned selectmen had
hired an attorney, however, he felt that action
“elevated the process
beyond a friendly board
to board exchange” and
they, too, proceeded in
the manner they felt
was best.
The five members
then held a meeting on
Aug. 16 to revisit the
criteria brought before
them as a continuance
of their prior meeting.
At that time the zoning board unanimously
upheld their previous
decision to grant the
variance for the new
business.
At the close of that
meeting,
Vice-Chairman Robert Brown read
a statement that focused
on Dawson's memorandum. He felt that she
had been unnecessarily

BELMONT — Belmont High School’s new
Principal, Dave Williams, has his attention
firmly fixed on the education of his students
and the skilled faculty
that make it all possible
as they head into the
2016-17 school year at
Shaker Regional School

SANBORNTON
—
Sanbornton selectmen
were pleased to introduce their new Town
Administrator,
Katie
Ambrose, to residents
during a brief reception
that took place prior to
their regular meeting
last Wednesday evening.
Ambrose began her
new job on Monday,
Aug. 15, and said that
while she is still learning her way around, she
is quite pleased to be a
part of the town.
“I think Sanbornton’s
a great community. The
staff has been so helpful and all the citizens
I’ve met have been very
friendly,” she said.
The fact that Sanbornton is such a “tightknit” community is
what Ambrose said attracted her to the position to begin with. All
through the interview
process she said the
search committee and
everyone she met was
warm and welcoming.
In addition to that she
has a background that
includes experience in
environmental matters,
so Winnisquam Lake
and other bodies of water in the town were an
added draw for her.
“I thought my experiences could be helpful to
the community and that
this would just be a good
fit for me, and so far it
is. This is a great team,”
Ambrose said, gesturing
toward all the town leaders who attended the reception.
Selectman
Karen
Ober said she feels this
is an exciting time for
Sanbornton. Both she
and fellow board members Johnny Van Tassel and John Olmstead
look forward to having
Ambrose working with
them as she brings new
ideas and experiences to
the town.
“Katie has a lot of
team leadership and a
lot to offer,” Ober said.
“It isn’t about being a
lone ranger, it’s about
how we can all work together for the good of the
citizens and the Town
of Sanbornton. We’re
happy to have Katie as
a part of that now, too.”
As the selectmen’s
meeting got underway,
they took a moment to
present certificates of
appreciation to Police
Chief Stephen Hankard,
Fire Chief Paul Dexter
and Town Treasurer
Karen Cobb for their
work on the search committee for the new Town
Administrator.
“The
results
of
the process you went
through are shown here
tonight. Thank you,”
selectmen told the committee.
Ambrose comes to
Sanbornton after threeand-a-half
years
as
Hooksett’s Project Coordinator in their Administrative
Department
and can now be reached
Monday through Friday
at 729-8090 for questions,
comments or concerns.

Belmont police investigating motorcycle crash
BY DONNA RHODES
[email protected]
BELMONT — An early morning motorcycle
accident on Wednesday,
Aug. 16, left a 54-yearold Tilton man with serious head injuries that
ultimately resulted in
a flight to Dartmouth
Hitchcock
Hospital
where he underwent
extensive medical treatment.
Belmont Police said
they were called to 226
Dutile Rd. at 5:04 a.m.
that day and upon arrival they found the victim,
later identified as Bruce
Coulombe, lying in the
road. He was treated at
the scene by members
of the Laconia-Belmont
Fire department before
being transported to
LRGH where the DHART
helicopter then airlifted
him to Dartmouth.
There has been no further word on Coulombe’s
condition.
Members of the Belknap Regional Accident
Investigation Team were
also called upon to assist
Belmont Police with a
detailed analysis of the
crash.
In a written press
release, Lt. Richard
Mann stated, “Officers
determined that (Coulombe) was not wearing
a helmet when his head
struck the pavement. At
this point in the investigation we are ruling out
excessive speed and alcohol as factors.”
Investigators are now
exploring the possibility
that an animal or some
other object may have
been in the path of the
motorcycle, causing the
crash. Since Coulombe
was unconscious when
rescue crews arrived, he
was not able to provide
them with any details of
what might have led up
to the accident.
Anyone who may
have any additional information about this
case is asked to call the
Belmont Police at 2678350.

On July 30 and Aug. 6, more than 2,100 Lakes Region households dropped off a total of more
than 21,000 gallons of hazardous products, ensuring that these materials will not enter our
drinking water or the environment, on which our local economy is so dependent.
More than 21,000 gallons of
hazardous waste safely removed
during collections
REGION — For each
of the past 29 years residents and property
owners in the Lakes Region have had an opportunity to safely dispose
of hazardous products
from their household,
reducing the likelihood
of accidents in their
home. On July 30 and
Aug. 6, more than 2,100
Lakes Region households dropped off a total of more than 21,000
gallons of hazardous
products, ensuring that
these materials will not
enter our drinking water or the environment,
on which our local economy is so dependent.
Since 1987, the Lakes
Region Planning Commission (LRPC) has
coordinated household
hazardous waste (HHW)
collections in the Lakes
Region. In 2016, 24 communities pooled their
resources, along with
a small grant from the
New Hampshire Department of Environmental
Resources (NH DES) to
provide their residents
and property owners
with the opportunity
to rid their homes of
toxic materials without
endangering the Lakes
Region’s groundwater
or soil. These hazardous materials included
oil-based paints, lawn
and garden products,
household
cleaners,
automotive fluids, and
pool chemicals. The annual collections, held at
eight different locations
around the region, gave
households a couple of
opportunities to bring
their hazardous materials in for convenient
and safe disposal.
The number of households participating in
this year’s collection
was the highest since
the establishment of a
regional HHW facility
in Wolfeboro 14 years
ago. While oil-based
paints continue to be
a large proportion of
the materials collected
during the annual collections, this year participants also dropped
off more than 5,000
gallons of tars, resins,
and epoxies, along with
4,000 gallons of pesticides and fertilizers.
The continued success of the collection is
due to many people, especially the sixty volunteers and municipal employees who turned out
to assist with surveys,
traffic control, and the
unloading of used motor oil and fluorescent

NORTH COUNTRY NOTEBOOK
Illegal moose and
obelisks: Tramping the
international line
By John Harrigan
Columnist
Anders Morley loves
traveling on foot. He’s
walked the length of
New Hampshire, from
Fitzwilliam to Pittsburg, he’s gone halfway across Canada on
cross-country skis, and
now, to sort of quote
Johnny Cash, he’s been
walking the line---the
U.S.-Canadian line, the
longest unfortified border in the world.
Or at least part of it.
Anders
snagged
room and board at the
Harrigan Hilton with
me a couple of times
to stage for his border
trek, having sought me
out because he heard
that I was interested in
the border and know a
few things about it.
I am, and I do. I
know, for instance, that
crews are kept busy every year or so keeping
a 20-foot swath of the
border clear of vegetation, from the St. Lawrence River just northwest of Montreal all the
way to New Brunswick
and the Bay of Fundy. I
know that smuggling, a
long-standing tradition,
is still going on, involving everything from cigarettes to booze to, yes,
drugs and illegal aliens.
And I know that Quebec hunters maintain
camps, some of them fitted out with all the comforts of home, smack
along their side the border in hopes of shooting one of our moose,
dragging it to their side
of the line, and make it
disappear “Somewhere
in Chartierville” before
a Quebec warden shows
up.
In this scenario, I
imagine a similar scene
in “Casablanca,” but in
this case, it is not a casino that causes shock,
shock do you hear, but
a dead moose. “What

PET OF THE WEEK LEIA
Leia, aged perhaps
one year old is the perfect sized pint sized canine for anyone looking
to share their life with
a happy, extremely outgoing, super intelligent
dog.
She arrived at New
Hampshire Humane Society as a stray back in
May. Perplexingly not
one call from anyone
looking for their missing companion meant
she was available for
adoption after the required time we must
hold strays had expired.
Leia enjoys regular
trips off campus with
one of her favorite volunteers. She has shown
all of us just how much
she wants to please and
be with humans. She
looks to those she is
with for instruction and
is incredibly obedient
knowing many commands. Truly though,
a solid bond of mutual
love and respect will
provide years of happiness to the folks who
take that special plunge
and adopt Leia. Weighing in at a little over
30lbs, with a lustrous
sleek short coat, a perky
jaunt in her step and a
perpetual smile on her
face; what’s not to love
about Leia?
Ideal home: one that
provides activity, walks
and hikes, opportunity
to meet the world – she
might prefer to be the
only dog in the home.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
n
Smile...you might be on “Candid Camera!”
To the Editor:
Brian Gallagher of Sanbornton, running for State
Senate in District 2, has learned many of his signs,
on private property, have been removed, thrown
into the woods or destroyed. Gallagher is running
a positive grassroots campaign, and finds it disappointing that this type of activity is taking place in
our friendly, local communities.
Gallagher, my dear friend, has stated to me, “Political campaigning is at times very arduous but in
all instances rewarding, as he travels about in District 2, he has often mentioned to me that everyone
whom he has met has been receptive and encouraging. The fruits of hard work will pay off, he often reminds me.
Brian has been very encouraged by those whom
he has spoken with in the law enforcement commu-
nity, that they will soon identify those that are responsible for the removal of the signs.
Brian’s optimistic attitude of working together
can achieve many successes for all of the communities in this large District. State Senate District 2.
Guy J Giunta, Jr.
Sanbornton
P.S.: Personally, I would be very careful for those
taking down signs because as they used to say on an
old television show, “Smile, you are on Candid Camera”; lots of homeowners these days now have surveillance cameras.
Remember, those taking down anyone’s sign
should be aware that it is against the law, but if those
individuals continue this illegal activity, you may
want to smile, because you may be on camera.
Hunter Taylor deserves to represent District 3
To the Editor:
As a member of the Belknap County Union Negotiating Team, it has been a pleasure to serve alongside
County Commissioner Hunter Taylor these past 18
months. Commissioner Taylor, as the leader of our
team, provided the guidance necessary to overcome
the many obstacles we faced in securing signed labor
agreements. Our negotiating team faced a situation where
union employees had not had a pay raise or signed
labor contract since 2012. We had to negotiate with
two different unions and four different bargaining
units, each with unique concerns and objectives. We
had to craft a different contract for each bargaining
unit while making sure that all final contracts were
equal in cost to the county taxpayer.
In two different negotiations, we reached an impasse, and it was Commissioner Taylor who suggest-
ed a solution that made it possible to move forward.
The final result of this year’s negotiations was three
signed labor contracts, two of which were approved
unanimously by union members and the County
Convention.
In addition to his negotiating skills, Commissioner Taylor has demonstrated a dogged attention to
detail and ability to “think outside the box”. These
skills helped significantly in the final design of the
new Belknap County Correctional Facility ultimately saving Belknap County taxpayers approximately
$34 million.
For the above reasons, I support Hunter Taylor
for County Commissioner. I don’t live in District 3,
so can’t vote for him, but as a county resident, I have
an interest in his winning the seat. Roger Grey

LRPA offers a front row seat to
“The Most Dangerous Game”
Classic suspense tale is this weekend's After Dark feature
LACONIA—Join
Lakes Region Public
Access Television at
10:30 p.m. this Friday
and Saturday night
(August 26 & 27) for
our “LRPA After Dark”
presentation of 1932’s
mystery-adventure
“The Most Dangerous
Game,” starring Joel
McCrea, Fay Wray and
Leslie Banks.
“The
Most
Dangerous Game” opens
aboard a luxury yacht
sailing to South America. One of the passengers is big game hunter,
author and adventurer
Bob Rainsford (McCrea). The ship runs
aground on a coral reef
in dangerous, shark-infested waters. Several
passengers enter the
ocean but only Rainsford survives the shark
attacks, swimming to a
remote island. Looking
for help, he comes upon
the jungle fortress of
Count Zaroff (Banks),
an exiled Russian aristocrat. He also meets
other victims of recent
shipwrecks,
including Eve Trowbridge
(Wray) and her brother Martin. The Count,
himself an avid sportsman who has turned
the island into a private hunting preserve,
knows of Rainsford’s
hunting prowess and
is delighted to host him
as his island’s newest
“guest.” Eve confides to
Rainsford that she feels
something is not right
on the island – several
other survivors have
recently gone missing.
Searching the fortress,
they come across a
room filled with big
game trophies, and
one of them is a man’s
head! Rainsford realizes that the Count is a
madman who hunts humans for sport. Rainsford and Eve soon find
themselves as the prey
in the most dangerous
game! How will they
escape with their lives?
“The Most Dangerous Game” began production at RKO Studios
at the same time as
“King Kong.” The films
had the same producers, so to save money,
they shared several of
the same actors (notably, Fay Wray) and
jungle sets, as well
as the same editor,
screenwriter and composer. Fans of “Kong”
may feel a similar style
and pace to “The Most
Dangerous Game.” The
film was very well received during its time
by critics and moviegoers alike. Although the
story has been adapted
for film many times
throughout the years,
our version is considered to be the closest to
the original story and
still the very best. All
three leads give solid
performance, particularly Leslie Banks as
the over-the-top Count
Zaroff. In his review,
Mordaunt Hall of the
New York Times noted,
… “Through the imaginative fashion in which
it has been produced …
the fantastic theme of
‘The Most Dangerous
Game’ makes a highly satisfactory melodrama.” What are you
waiting for? Grab your
popcorn and meet us
after dark for this vintage thriller.

Owner and director of
Creative Steps Sue Harrington had the privilege
to watch as her dancers
received there awards.
"It was amazing to see
the joy on these young
dancer's faces when they
realized they had won
and all of their time, energy, and hard work paid
off." Said Harrington.
Karina Tomlinson, a
graduate of Gilford High
this past June, received
an award for the highest
scoring solo in the senior division for her solo
"Tap Talk.” Harrington
also received the choreography award for this
solo, as well as the group
dance "Strings.” "It is hard to believe
it is over," Harrington
said. The dancers started
working on their dances a year ago. They will
now start on their new
choreography for the upcoming dance season.
Creative Steps is very
excited to have back on

FRANKLIN
— William “Bill” E. Hurd, 55,

the son of Charles E. and
Marilyn (Hazen) Hurd. He was a graduate of
Franklin High School,

served him well in his
long battle with cancer.
He never gave up once

heavy equipment at
the young age of 13. He
owned and operated W.
E. Hurd Construction

He was a passionate golfer and longtime member
of the Den Brae Golf Club
in Sanbornton, serving
as president of the men’s
twilight league for several years.
He always considered
the folks at Den Brae
as his second family.
Bill believed strongly
in community service.

as president and in 2012
was honored with the
Hurst Award, as “Community Hero.” He served
as past president of the
Lakes Region Snowmobile Club which he had
been active with for
years. He also served on
the Club Board of Directors. One of Bill’s greatest joys was time spent
at his camp in Stark,
NH. He loved the north
country and spent alot
of time there with family
and friends. He especially looked forward to bird
season and hunting with
his bird dog, Cameron. Over the years, Bill
served as a volunteer
with the Franklin Fire
Department and was active with the Explorer
Program. He had been a
longtime member of the

Mark on the Markets
Principled investing
BY MARK PATTERSON
I first heard it referred
to as “socially responsible” investing, then it became impact investing
or green and a number of
other ways that I want to
refer to as principled investing. Speaking with
many investors gives me
insight as to what their
objectives are when investing their money.
Often times, they come
in my office with some
mutual funds that are
categorized as growth
or income, large-cap,
small-cap, international,
and a bunch more. Eight
or nine years ago I had
given some presentations regarding socially
responsible or impact
investing. Often times,
these talks attracted
those who lean towards
those
environmental
minded. As the word got
out that I was designing
portfolios of investments
specifically based on
people’s principles and
values, I found that almost everyone wanted to
tailor their portfolio and
invest in companies that
they felt good about and
more importantly, avoid
those companies or industries they despised.
The “socially responsible” tag was often stuck
on those with politically
left leanings who did not
like companies such as
Walmart, Exxon Mobil
or a host of other companies whose practices
they questioned. I have
also had clients that sold
their mutual funds because they had Internet
related companies like
Google a.k.a. alphabet,
because these clients
were concerned about
Internet pornography. I
have had clients tell me
they do not want GE in
their portfolio because
the current CEO is an
economic advisor to the
current administration
in Washington, D.C. and
political crony.
I believe most people
do have their opinions,
likes and dislikes and
principles when it comes
to investing their money. As an advisor there
are certain companies
that I would not invest
my own money based on
my principles. But my
principles are not your
principles, you must
voice your opinions and
principles as to where
you want your money invested and where you do
not. It’s very difficult to
eliminate all companies
that you may have an
issue with, but identifying beliefs based on your
principles that are important to you and then
talking to your advisor
about it is a great start.
There are plenty of great
companies whose equity
or debt you can buy for
your portfolio that can
fit your criteria.
If you choose to plow
your money into mutual funds, you must
understand that you
may have an issue with
many of these companies in the fund’s portfolio. There are a few
“socially responsible”
funds but they may not
reflect your principles,
likes and dislikes at all.
There are some great
advantages to building
your personal portfolio

Belknap House receives grant from
New Hampshire Charitable Foundation
LACONIA — Belknap
House recently received
a $35,000 grant from the
New Hampshire Charitable Foundation for
the installation of a
fire sprinkler system.
During the cold weather months of Oct. 15 to
May 15, the shelter will
provide temporary living quarters for homeless Belknap County
families with children. Families will be helped
to find housing and to
increase self-reliance. The shelter must have a
code-approved sprinkler
system in place before
opening.
In
accepting
the
grant, Belknap House
Board President Colleen
Garrity remarked, “This
is such a generous donation from a group who
understands the needs
of children and the concerns of homeless families during cold weather
months. I speak for the

of Directors in saying
how grateful we are for
the support of the New
Hampshire Charitable
Foundation. We cannot
do this alone. We need
the community support
of individuals, businesses, and civic organizations. The grant from

Fund will be truly instrumental in moving us
forward.”

Anders is not the first
such story-chasing writer to stay at my house,
which indeed sometimes seems like a hotel.
Larry Millman, author
of 16 books and perhaps
best known for “Last
Places,” stayed with me
too, and had fascinating
tales about life among
the High Arctic’s people. Anders reminds me
of him, more at home
alone in the wild than
dealing with sidewalks
and scads of people.
Anders had heard
about something I’d
written a while back
about a pin-prick on
the map where the
boundaries of Maine,
New Hampshire and
Canada meet, a storied
place established by the
1842 Webster-Ashburton Treaty, tweaked by
small adjustments from
more precise surveying
ever since, and finally
marked
permanently
by various obelisks and
geodetic brass markers
hammered into boulders and bedrock.
Using rod, chain and
compass to initially
mark the line, the 1843
Ashburton crew fought
its way north through
the elements and thickets, through swamps
and over mountains,
to ascertain roughly

where northern New
England and Quebec
met.
A bit later on, a surveying crew marking
the Maine-New Hampshire line fetched up
on the Quebec line,
piled up a large cairn of
rocks, and carved their
names and the date into
the trunk of a yellow
birch tree. This carving
endured for decades, an
object of fascination for
generations of surveyors and hunters alike.
Anders wanted to
do that stretch of the
border from Maine to
Vermont, and see that
spot, and so one bright
morning we piled into
my truck and took off
for Pittsburg’s Boundary Pond, in a high saddle just a stone’s throw
from the Canadian line.

time that homeless children are particularly at
risk. The shelter will
link families with the resources and educational
opportunities needed to
become self-sufficient. Belknap House plans
to open in October 2016

of residents and local
businesses as well as
charitable, community
and religious organizations. Further information may be obtained

is a couple of miles east
of the pond, so I took a
turn just shy of Boundary, aiming for a beaver pond that sits not
far from the pin-prick
on the map. There I
dropped Anders, who
splashed across the beaver dam, drew a bead on
a densely wooded ridge,
and with a wave headed
straight north.
“I found the border,
no problem,” he said
later, “and then backtracked a few hundred
yards to find the meeting point. There was no
fabled yellow birch any
more, but there was a
nice little granite obelisk, and the Maine line
was newly marked with
yellow diamonds tacked
to trees.”
With that, he headed west, bound for the
Pittsburg-Chartierville
border station, and ultimately the Vermont
state line. And he made
it all right, after spending two nights out, one
of them on a Quebec
moose-hunter’s
platform.

about his border hike
for an upcoming issue
of New Hampshire Magazine.)

equally sincere. Williams said that since his
start date of July 1, he
has met one-on-one with
each of the teachers to
hear their thoughts,
needs, and hopes for the
future and is excited
about all he has learned
from them.
“Through our discussions we’ve come
up with a mosaic of the
school, its needs and
its strengths,” said Williams. “I’ll be keeping
all that in mind as I
spend this year watching and learning more
about the school.”
That will include
spending time in the
classrooms where, as an
instructional leader, he
feels he will get a better
grasp of all that takes
place at Belmont High
School.
As the new school
year gets underway Williams is also excited to
bring on board a new
Associate
Principal,
Christopher Tebo, who
will partner with him
in his goals. As part of
the search committee
to find a new Associate
Principal, Williams was
pleased Tebo accepted
the offer to join him at
Belmont High School.
“Our relationship is
critical, and I think we
make a great team. He’s
young and has a lot of
energy, and I know we’ll
get along great,” said
Williams.
Tebo comes to Belmont from Spaulding
High School in southern
New Hampshire where
he was a Social Studies
teacher. As sought to
move up with his career
in education, Tebo said
the opening in Belmont
was brought to his attention and he knew
right away it was the
perfect fit for him.
“I came here for a
number of reasons, first
of all because I worked
in the development of
Competency Base Education and when the
opportunity to come to
Belmont and work with
Dave presented itself, I
couldn’t pass it up,” said
Tebo.
He said that now is
an exciting time to be
involved in education
and he is just as excited
about his new career in
Belmont.
A recent Parents’
Night was held when
families were introduced to the new Competency Based Education
program their students
will be experiencing
and Williams said the
program was very well
received.
Competency
Based
Education,
he
explained, is much more
focused on the learning
process and what goes
on in the classroom than
on the test grades students achieve. Through
greater learning and understanding of a subject,
he said, students will
have a better grasp of
their overall education
and therefore achieve
higher test grades.
“I want competency based learning, not
competency based grading. I want teachers to
finally get to focus on
teaching and learning,
not grades. Throughout
the year we’ll have a lot
of professional development workshops for
that focus on academic
excellence,” Williams
said.
Students, parents and
the community will not
be left out of the equation either. Williams
said student voices will
be heard and he will
schedule periodic coffee
time chats with parents
and the community to
hear their ideas and
concerns as well.
While all those initiatives have him excited
to be a part of Shaker Regional School District,
the only thing missing
this summer has been
the students themselves
and he eagerly awaited
the first day of school,
which was this Tuesday.
“I’m just really excited to get them in
here. This school is
the perfect size where
I can get to know them
all by name, celebrate
their strengths and the
strengths of the staff
members who work
with them,” Williams
said.

sentiments and a lack of

said.
Plessner also read
a lengthy statement of
his own, stating that the
board had served the
town as volunteers, doing their best to serve in
good faith and through
sound judgment based
on evidence and fact in
rendering their decisions.
“Recently, the Board
of Selectmen challenged
our decision in ZBA
Case 16-01, wherein relief was granted in the
form of a variance by
applying criteria specified in RSA 674:33 to
allow the owner reasonable use of his property,” he read from a prepared statement.
He said that from
the tone of Dawson’s
memorandum he and
others felt the zoning
board would be “under
a microscope” in the
future, and therefore
concluded by saying,
“It saddens us that de-
spite our long-standing
acquaintances with the
BOS members and our
appreciation for the responsibilities that they
bear, not one of them
rose to verify the accusations and threats
by Dawson. That being
said, it seems the best
way to resolve this matter is for you to consider
this our formal notice of
resignation by the below listed members of
the ZBA, effective Sept.
1, 2016.”
Plessner,
Brown,
George Helwig and
Kathy Yeo all affixed
their signatures to the
document, while Marina Sumner opted to
send in her own personal letter of resignation
instead.
wanted to bring to the
attention of her fellow
selectmen her own findings that revealed many
of the automotive businesses along Route 3 are
of nonconforming use.
They have only been
allowed by past special
exceptions and variances, a practice that she
feels needs to come to an
end. She said there are
many residential homes
in and behind businesses along the Mixed Use
zone in Lochmere and
that past zoning boards
allowed nonconforming
businesses to creep into
the area, going against
the town’s Master Plan.
Building on those past
decisions is not making
the situation any better for the future of the
town.
“For me it’s just frustrating. The ordinances
voted on by the legislative body really need to
stand,” said Dawson.
As for the selectmen’s
reactions to her memorandum, she thought
that by questioning the
decision of the case,
the “ball was in their
(the ZBA’s) court” but
instead they chose not
to come to selectmen to
have a discussion on the
topic.
“I would have even
gone to one of their
meetings to sit down
and have a discussion with them if they
couldn’t come to us,”
Dawson said. “But I
want to point out that it
was not Katherine Dawson who made the motion to go forward with
a request for a rehearing- it was the Board of
Selectmen.”
The ZBA did not see
it that way however
and now the town is in
search of a new group
of volunteers willing
to take on the job of
overseeing
ordinances in their community.
In the meantime there
are no exceptions that
can be allowed to any
ordinances in the town
without a zoning board
to appeal to. That alone
could bring another
host of challenges if a
new board is not assembled in a reasonable
amount of time. Dawson
speculated that even the
ZBA’s final variance on
Case 16-01 is not yet a
sure thing. It could now
be up to selectmen to
make that decision.
“No one wins in this
and the biggest loser is
the young man down
there trying to make a
living. We’ll just have to
wait and see what happens from here,” Dawson said.
Chairman Pat Consentino of the Board
of Selectmen said she
would be happy to welcome back any of the
five members who recently gave up the job,
acknowledging
their
experience, dedication
and willingness to volunteer their time for the
sake of their community. All others who may
be interested in serving
on the Zoning Board are
also asked to contact
the Selectmen’s office
at 286-4521, ext. 100 for
more information.
Dawson
said
on
Monday that she was
saddened by the resignations, acknowledging
the years of experience
each of the ZBA members had dedicated to
the town. She explained
that she had merely

Sky high
Raiders loaded, aim for deep postseason run
BY JEFF LAJOIE
[email protected]
BELMONT – The offseason came much too
soon for the Belmont
High School boys' soccer team last year. With
the NHIAA Division
III bracket opening up
thanks to a bevy of upsets, the Red Raiders
looked destined to make
a run with a deep and talented roster. But facing
a Campbell team it had
already defeated during
the regular season, Belmont was unable to get
its offense going in the
quarterfinals. The visiting Cougars ended the
Raiders season prematurely, sending Belmont
packing with a 1-0 loss.
The defeat ended a
magical 15-3 overall season for the fourth-seeded Raiders, which had
as much of a stake to
the D-III throne as anyone with the way they
played during the regular season.
“Our goal at the on-

Mike Foley following
the quarterfinal loss a
year ago. “We worked
hard all year but came
up a bit short. I feel bad
for the seniors. This was

only the second game
all year where we didn't
score a goal.”
While the loss thwarted the Raiders in their
quest for a state championship, the good news
for Belmont is that this
year's team is once again
locked and loaded, and a
deep run is well within
the realm of possibility.
Belmont's
senior
class has excelled on the
varsity stage for years,
and if all the pieces fall
into place, the Raiders
will certainly have a
chance to return to the
program's first Final
Four since 2012.
“With the return of a
veteran team our expectations are very high,”
offered Foley. “Our
season ended too soon
last year and this group
wants to make it further
in the tournament. We
are going to rely on our
ability to move the ball
quickly and continue to
improve on our defense
which only surrendered
12 goals last year.”

much a veteran team,

Bears shoot for continued improvement
BY JEFF LAJOIE
[email protected]
TILTON – Three
years ago, Nick D'Agostino took over a program that was down
on numbers and down
on success. The Winnisquam Regional High
School boys' soccer
team struggled in his
first season, winning
just two games, but last
year's team stepped up
both in numbers and
success.
The Bears won seven
games, posting a 7-9-1
overall record and qualifying for the NHIAA
Division III postseason.
After a 1-5 start to the
season, the team posted
an outstanding 6-2 mark
to get back to .500 before the final portion of
the schedule. After a 2-0
loss to Newfound in the
D-III first round, Winnisquam will look to continue the upward trend
of success this fall in
D'Agostino's third season with the program.
There will be some
big hurdles for the
Bears to overcome this
season however. Despite graduating just
five seniors, there were
some key losses in that
class, including several
starters and captains
who had been lynchpins
of the starting lineup for
several years.
With the ability to
field two teams last year
(JV and varsity), Winnisquam hopes the extra
reps will pay off this season. The D-III field won't
be easy to navigate, but
the Bears more than
held their own in 2015
and hope to do the same
again.
“The team returns six
starters from last year's
team,” said D'Agostino.
“The young team adds
nine new additions in a
sophomore/junior loaded team. The team will
work towards returning
to the playoffs and try to
improve on last year's
success.”
The 2016 season kicks
off Aug. 26 with a home
game against White
Mountains (3:30 p.m.),
and the Bears follow
with tilts against Campbell and Somersworth
in a difficult following
week.
Who's in: The sophomore class is quite
large, with a plethora
of youngsters stepping
into the squad. Sara

ek DeSousa (D), Calvin

Hinxman (M), Patrick
Welch (D), and Samuel Wood (M/F) are all
sophomores on the roster, while freshman Eric
Young (M/F) is the lone
member of his grade on
the squad.
Who's out: After an
outstanding
career,
goalkeeper Mike Buxton
graduated
last
spring and leaves a huge
void in the Winnisquam
lineup this fall. Buxton
was one of the top keepers in D-III, and the longtime starter between the
pipes was a two-time
All-State selection as
well as a co-captain.

sharing time between
the midfield and defensive portion of the field.
Stock was also an AllState pick a year ago,
and his physicality and
strong boot were always counted on for the
Bears.
The tandem were
arguably the most important players for Winnisquam a year ago and
their losses are difficult,
but fellow classmates Issiah Millis (defense) and
Jake Hinds (defense)
will also be missed as
they provided a variety
of skills that impacted
the lineup in a big way.
Who to watch: Junior
midfielder Caiden Gamble has been a key piece
to the starting lineup
since bursting onto the
scene as a freshman,
and he continue to de-
liver last year as a star
midfielder.
Gamble's
biggest moment of 2015
came against Newfound
in a regular season contest, as his corner kick
in overtime somehow
found its way into the
back of the net for a goal
that sealed a 3-2 victory.
Forward
Trenton
Kennett also showed his
flare for scoring goals a
year ago, and he had his
best game of the season
in a midseason victory
over Laconia. Kennett
scored three goals, posting a hat trick that lifted
the Bears to a key win
over the Sachems.
Senior Scott Hinds
made his bones defensively a year ago and
returns to help shore up
that unit. Seniors Logan
Krause (M/D) and Conner Young (D) round out
that class, while juniors
Jesse Fredette (M), Edward Gallien (F), and
Mark Sotherden (M)
also return.
Prediction:
How
quickly the Bears can
plug new players into
those key holes throughout the lineup will be the
key to success this fall.
But with six starters
back, including some
dynamic young players,
don't expect Winnisquam to be an easy out
come late October and
early November.
Impressive senior class to power Raiders
BY JEFF LAJOIE
[email protected]
BELMONT – For the
past five years, the goal
for the Belmont High
School girls' soccer team
has continually been
the same: reach a Final
Four.
That won't change
this fall, as the Red Raiders return a horde of talented veterans and appear loaded for a shot at
that elusive Final Four
berth. The squad posted
an 11-6-1 record a year
ago, beating Newport in
the preliminary round
of the NHIAA Division
III Tournament before
falling to Hopkinton, 3-0,
in the quarterfinals. The
loss was the fourth in

Belmont senior Jasmine Syed returns as one of the top defenders for the Red Raiders this fall.
belts, along with a senior
class that has been in
the loop for many years
as well, the combination
should put the Raiders
right on the cusp of a
deep postseason run.
New head coach Cevat Vural takes over
the program this fall,
and he inherits a roster rich with talent that
also boasts the ability
of depth throughout the
various grades.
Who's in: Belmont
will be bolstered by some
talented newcomers, as
freshmen Katie Gagnon
and Sana Syed are on
the squad, as are sophomores Paige Dillon and
Kaitlyn Delisle.
Who's out: The Raiders didn't graduate a
ton of starters from last
year's team, though
arguably the biggest loss
comes on defense in the
form of Courtney Clairmont. The vocal leader
of the back line, she was
a long-time starter and
lynchpin in the middle
for Belmont.
Midfielder
Megan
Prescott also graduated after making key
contributions for several years, while backup goalkeeper Clorissa
Roode and midfielder/
defender Jen Hamilton
also moved on.
Who to watch: The returning core is powered
by senior Kelsey Scott,
who has occupied the
center midfield role for
the Raiders for several
years and was the team's
lone
representative
on last year's All-State
squad. Scott's combina-

tion of skill and patience
on the ball makes her a
dangerous offensive option, though she's also a
two-way player willing
to make the runs back
defensively to handle
her assignments.
The senior class is
plenty loaded in addition
to Scott, as goalkeeper
Mariah Watson returns
for her third year between the pipes. Watson
made 16 saves in a busy
outing against Hopkinton in the D-III quarterfinals.
Midfielder
Hannah
Shirley was a great complement to Scott last
year and returns with
loads of experience,
while classmates Sarah
Chase and Emma Chase
are both varsity veterans who can fly on the
outside midfield slots.
Defensively,
senior
Jasmine Syed, junior
Chloe Sottak and sophomore Lizzie Fleming
all return after starting
along the back line a
year ago. Sophomore
speedsters Julianna Estremera and Makenzie
Donovan are also back
after playing important
roles as freshmen a year
ago. Estremera was one
of Belmont's most dangerous offensive weapons at the forward position, while Donovan is
versatile enough to see
a variety of spots on the
pitch.
Prediction:
There
have been many talented teams over the past
six years for the Raiders,
but none have been able
to get over that quarterfinal hump. The longer the streak has gone
on, the more daunting
it has become, though
there's no reason why
this year's squad can't
exorcise those demons
and break through into a
Final Four.
The combination of
talent and experience
should have the Raiders
in prime position come
November, but putting
it all together for an
80 minute game in the
quarterfinal round is
something that Belmont
has been unable to do in
recent years. Could this
be the year that changes?

Deep, talented Bears primed for big season
BY JEFF LAJOIE
[email protected]
TILTON – For the
third year in a row, the
Winnisquam Regional
High School field hockey team saw its season
come to an untimely
end in the NHIAA Division III quarterfinals
last year. But after graduating just one senior
from that team, the time
is now for the deep and
talented Bears to surge
forward and make a run
at an elusive Final Four
appearance.
Winnisquam posted
an 8-6-2 mark a year ago
under head coach Cherie Snow, who enters
her sixth year with the
program. The Bears upset Stevens on the road
to advance to the quarterfinals, where they
ultimately dropped a 1-0
decision to Hopkinton
in a game they pretty
much dominated, holding an 8-3 edge in penalty corners.
Winnisquam got off
to a slow start in 2015, as
the Bears found themselves just 2-4 before a
6-2-2 mark over the final
10 games of the season

Snow has developed a
deep and talented roster
for several years, with
contributions coming
from all grades the past
few seasons. That roster, which featured several players who led the

though
sophomores
Colby Brown (F), Griffin Embree (M/F) and
Derek Stevens (D) will
aid the roster this fall as
newcomers.
Who's out: There's
plenty
of
returning
talent for the Raiders,
though the squad did
take some key losses to
graduation.
Forward TJ Hennessey was the team's
leading scorer up top,
and the hulking forward was a matchup
nightmare with his
combination of size and
speed. For his efforts,
Hennessey was tabbed
as a First Team All-State
selection, and one of a
handful of players in
the running for the D-III
Player of the Year. He's
continuing his playing
career internationally
this year, competing
with the GPS International Academy in London, England.
While
Hennessey's
loss is a big blow to the
Belmont offense, the
defense also took a big
hit in the graduation
of All-State Honorable
Mention selection Kyle
Gelinas. The heady
Gelinas was one of the
most consistent players
for the Raiders over the
past two seasons, and
he helped run the show
right in the middle of the
back line.
Colby Leroux was a
contributor at the outside midfield positions
for the Raiders last year
before graduating, while
rising sophomore Ca-
ra Adams and her USFS
and PSA registered
staff coaching everyone from beginners to
experts, from age three
to 300.
Two local “experts”
include Tilton sophomore Maggie DeVoy
and
Bishop
Brady
freshman Ila Bartenstein. Both girls have
been with the club
since early elementary
school and have taken
their skating careers
seriously, skating year-
round several times a
week and have brought
that expertise and passion to young skaters at
Magic Blades, training
as coaches under senior
staff to not only perfect
their skating, but their
teaching as well.
Skating begins Monday, Sept. 12, at the Tilton School Ice Arena.
Beginner lessons start
at 6 p.m. Tuition is $80
for six weeks, and there
are family discounts
available. Tilton School
leb Duggan saw time
as a freshman last year
but transferred to New
Hampton School.
Who to watch: Where
to begin?
The Raiders are absolutely loaded with
returning talent, and
the deep and sizable senior class has impacted
the program for several
years now.
Senior
goalkeeper
Jonny Leclair is the
backbone between the
pipes, and he's been the
team's starter in that
spot since his freshman
season. Having that
kind of continuity is certainly not a bad thing,
and he's developed into
an outstanding goalkeeper who was tabbed
All-State
Honorable
Mention last year.
Fellow seniors Corey
Derosier and Doug Price
also return, and both
found their way onto the
All-State list a year ago
as juniors. With the pair
holding things down in
the midfield, Belmont
dominated teams in the
middle third of the field,
leading to a constant
barrage of transition
goals.
Seniors Tyler Fleming and Chris Marden
also return after starting
last year, while classmates Logan Wilder and
Ryan Gelinas are back
as top forward options.
Seniors Eli Allman (M),
Cole Contigiani (F),
Hunter Kenney (D/F),
Nick Mackes (M), and
Max Schott (M) all re-
turn as well.
Junior River Mathieu
will serve as a tri-captain along with Price
and Derosier, and he'll
set the pace defensively
with Kyle Gelinas having graduated.
The sophomore trio
of Caleb Burke, Zach Ennis and Nolan Gagnon
all saw varsity time last
year as freshmen.
Prediction: With Leclair in goal and the
tandem of Derosier and
Price leading the way in
the field, expectations
are indeed high for the
Raiders this fall. Replac-
ing Hennessey's offensive production will be
on the 'To Do' list, as will
stabilizing the defense
with Kyle Gelinas graduating. But with all the
pieces returning as well
forts.
Junior
midfielder
Makenzie Snow is another standout returning player who has been
a constant presence in
the lineup since her
freshman year, while
seniors Cora Kelley and
Jenna Roy are also returning starters in the
midfield. Senior Sabrina Bellerose and junior
Kaylee Tierney also return for the Bears.
There's plenty of returning firepower offensively, as seniors
Ema Atherton and Molly Tinker both return,
as do junior speedster
Emily Decormier and
classmates Lilli Keegan
and Lindsey Phelps.
In the goal, junior
Riley Toupin returns
after starting both her
freshman and sophomore years between the
pipes. The Winnisquam
defense proved quite
stout down the stretch
a year ago, and Toupin
was a big reason for the
team's stinginess.
Prediction:
Area
coaches are all pointing
to the Bears as a team to
watch in D-III this fall,
and with their combination of depth and talent, that tag appears to
be warranted. With an
experienced goalkeeper pacing things from
the back, Winnisquam
is well-positioned to
make some noise and
potentially press forward for a Final Four
berth. With talented
and hungry players like
Clogston, along with
McNamara and Snow,
both

team as you're going to
find this fall.
as some up and coming talent filling in the
gaps, a run to the Final
Four and a challenge for
a D-III title is certainly
within reason for Belmont this season.
