Patricia DiPadova of Newport, has
been named the September Mascoma Savings Bank and WNTK Student
of the Month
at Newport
High School.
DiPadova is

of his class
as a senior

retained a “straight A” class average
throughout his four years at School.
Newport High School is proud to
have Anthony DiPadova as part of

Student wins contest
Adra Gonzalez, a Newport fifth grade

name was drawn from Meadow Farms
fundraising in
Agawam MA.
The fundraiser
that Gonzalez is

raises money to
support Newport School District’s “Winter Program”
where students in fifth and sixth
grade are introduced to various winter
sports activities including downhill
skiing, alpine skiing, snowshoeing,
ice skating, basketball, volleyball, and
tennis. The Winter Program is in its
third decade, and is an important part
of the physical education curriculum
at the school. It is not included in the
Newport School Budget.

2nd harassment suit
Posteraro filed similar claim against former employer
Jennifer Posteraro, 40, the woman who
filed a domestic violence petition against
Weare Police Chief John Velleca, claiming sexual harassment, made similar claims
against Citizens Bank, her former employer
last year. From September 2010 to August
2011, Posteraro, worked as a banker at the
Citizens Bank South Willow Street Branch.
In her suit, filed in Federal District Court, she
claims to suffer from post-traumatic stress
disorder resulting from an abusive relation-
ship with her supervisor, and that he and
others continued to harass her with taunts and
sexual commentary.
Her complaint further alludes that when
she was transferred to a different branch, she
was repeatedly yelled at and reprimanded. She
took medical leave in May 2011 and was fired
that August.
Attorneys for the bank and supervisor deny
the allegations. The case is scheduled for trial
next summer.
Hillsborough Welcome/Visitor Center proposed
Joe Walker, a Business/Marketing teacher
and co-advisor to DECA, FBLA and NH Scholars
and Sean Ryan of the Monadnock Travel Council
met with the Selectmen to propose establishing
a Welcome/Visitor Center in Hillsborough to be
run by the students, in cooperation with other
stakeholders. Walker believes such a facility
would have a tremendous economic impact on
the town by giving travelers another reason to
stop in town, raise awareness of Hillsborough's
many attractions such as the Living History, BalloonFest and the Pierce Homestead.
Selectman David Fullerton, who is also chair
of Hillsborough Pride and Alan Urquart chair
of the Economic Development Committee both
were supportive and suggested making a presentation to those groups.
In its early stages, the project will require
fundraising, but the first requirement is finding a
suitable location for the building.

Accident closes I89N
Goffstown drops controversial driveway repaving fee
The northbound lanes of Interstate
89 in Sutton were closed Monday after
a rollover accident. State police said the
interstate was closed at mile marker 30.
Police said an SUV rolled over, trapping two
people inside. They were later taken to local
hospitals with unspecified injuries. Police
said they were able to reopen the left lane
shortly after the crash and then reopened
the right lane after the vehicle was towed.
A resident complained in August after
over paying a $100 fee for repaving private
driveways, the Selectmen have voted to do
away with the fee.
The board also discussed keeping the
$100 fee for constructing new driveways
and agreed that was fair. The selectmen’s
discussion packet suggested lowering the
repaving permit fee from $100 to $25. It
was decided to eliminate the repaving fee
altogether. A permit is still required for im-

Selectman Nick Campasano suggested that
there be a license required for homeowners

Researchers have discovered that drugs developed to
BY SARAH CHAPIN neutralize the effect of dopamine, called dopamine
antagonists, possess tumor-killing activity against the most aggressive
form of primary brain cancer, glioblastoma. The finding was published in
Oncotarget. Abnormal dopamine regulation is associated with Parkinson’s

About three out of four older Americans have multiple chronic health
conditions, and more than 20 percent of them are being treated with
drugs that work at odds with each other — the medication being used
for one condition can actually make the other condition worse, according to a study published in PLOS One . A common issue, for example, is
patients who have both coronary heart disease and chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease, or COPD. Beta blockers are often prescribed to treat
the heart disease, but those same drugs can cause airway resistance that
worsens the COPD.

Newport schools want more students
In an attempt to increase its student population, the Newport School Board has voted to reduce its tuition rates for the
2015-16 school year. On a 4-0 vote at an emergency meeting of
the board, both elementary and middle school tuition rates were
set at $12,650, reducing the current tuition costs by $432 for elementary students and by $665 for middle school students. The
high school tuition remained unchanged. Newport is attempting
to become an anchor school for Goshen students from prekindergarten to grade 8 when the Goshen-Lempster Cooperative School District split becomes effective on July 1, 2015. See
related story on page 8.
Franklin man arrested for stabbing tire
A Franklin man was arrested for being a Felon in Possession of a Deadly Weapon, two counts of Criminal Threatening,
and one count of Criminal Mischief after he stabbed a tire on
a 10 year old’s bike. Police say a 10 year old girl was riding her
bike on Spring Street when she ran over Michael Rapaglia’s foot
before he stabbed the tire on Wednesday. Rapaglia was arrested
without incident on Thursday and arraigned in Franklin Court.
He is being held in the Merrimack County Corrections Facility
on $1,000.00 cash bail.
Illegal apartment discovered in Henniker
Henniker town Administrator Tom Yennerell reported that
during a routine commercial building inspection the Fire Department found an unpermitted third floor apartment occupied
by six people in the building that houses the Henniker Pharmacy. The matter has been turned over to the Fire Marshall.
Additionally, Town Planner Mark Fugere met with a company
who may be interested in building a gas station and convenience
store on Old Concord Rd.
Volunteers Crisis at Kearsarge Chamber
The Kearsarge Area Chamber of Commerce is reaching a
crisis, because of a lack of volunteers to serve on its Board of
Directors. Based in Warner, the Chamber, with 48 members,

Franklin coordinating with Colby-Sawyer on revitalization
City Manager Elizabeth Dragon, City
Planner Dick Lewis, and Jim Aberg, Executive Director of the Franklin Business
and Industrial Development Corporation,
met with Harvey Pine, Environmental
Studies Professor at Colby-Sawyer College, and Todd Workman, a downtown
property owner who is actively pursuing
revitalization opportunities for the downtown and mill district area. The overall goal of this community
based research project is to help the
students become more familiar with the
real-life issues that confront a City such
as Franklin and to help frame options
and goals for the revitalization of the
downtown and mill district area in an innovative and sustainable manner. The Project involves a group of 11
students who are spending one day a
week in the City researching and analyzing a variety of community issues. They
are initially looking at the City’s Master
Plans, past Planning Charrettes, and
other related documents. The students
will meet with city officials, community
groups, and key organizations such as
the hospital and the local Banks, to get
different perspectives on planning for the
future of the City. MiniKickers is a new and exciting program that teaches basic soccer skills while developing strength, balance, coordination, listening skills and team work for children aged

Bradford Town Hall committee sets goals
Marcia Keller of Bradford's Town Hall Restoration Building
Sub Committee, explained the formation of the sub-committee
and asked the following Mission Statement be entered into the
record: "The subcommittee will make recommendations to the
full THRB for incremental improvements to the building with
available funds, with the objective of moving the Town Offices
from the BACC to the Town Hall as soon as practical." The plan
is currently to remove the old police/selectmen extension and to
follow through with the plan developed last year." Three estimates
have been received to remove the extension. A question was raised
if this work reflected the wording of the warrant article passed by
the town last March. Should the town be concentrating on obtaining full construction drawings instead? Also discussed was the
role of volunteer labor.

On a vote of 3-1-1, the Goshen School Board Wednesday night
chose Newport as its anchor school over Lempster starting on
July 1, 2015. Although Newport set its tuition rate for elementary
and middle school students at $12,650 starting with the 2015-16
school year compared to Lempster’s $12,900 number, that didn’t
appear to weigh heavily in the final decision. At the last minute,
Craig Shute chairman of the Unity School Board, said that Unity
was also interested in attracting Goshen students to its new school
at a tuition rate of $11,800. However, Goshen board members
were in agreement that the Unity bid was too late to consider.

NhSolarGarden to construct a solar array on the town's landfill.
Officials from the company said that between rent and electric rate
reductions the town could receive up to $24,000 per year. After
several questions the measure passed on a 8-6 vote.

Hopkinton Fair Association sues Town over tax status
The year long dispute, which both sides
had pledged to rectify has flared up as the
Hopkinton State Fair Association has sued
the Town of Hopkinton over its tax status.
In October of 2013 the selectmen voted
not to renew a $15,000 tax break that the
association had been granted. The decision
was prompted by several complaints that
the fair had changed. The board unanimously voted not to extend the agreement
that the association had with a previous
board. Then in April, the board unanimously voted to deny the nonprofit association
a charitable tax exemption. Absent the
exemption, the association must pay about
$45,000 in property taxes.
Shortly before Labor Day weekend the
association filed a civil complaint in Merrimack County Superior Court to challenge
that decision. That action is the latest tear in
a rift between the two.
The town was served on September 12,
and has 30 days to respond.

A local military family is one step closer
to having their dream home ready thanks
to the help of a non-profit organization
dedicated to providing custom houses for
veterans, The Home Depot, a popular TV
show, and over 150 enthusiastic volunteers.
Homes for Our Troops is a Massachusettsbased organization that builds specially- adapted, mortgage-free homes for
wounded veterans of the post-9/11 era.
Currently, Homes for Our Troops is
working with the DeWitt family of Weare.
In 2003, Army Staff Sgt. Matt DeWitt
sustained serious injuries during a firefight
in Khalidiyah, Iraq, eventually leading to
the amputation of both his arms from the
elbow down.
Homes for Our Troops partnered with
DeWitt and his fiancée, Catrina Peck, who
have two sons together, Reed and Levi, to
build them a house that would make life
easier for DeWitt. Volunteers gathered on
Saturday to do all of the landscaping for the
family’s new home, located at 985 Jewett
Road. In The Home Depot store in Nashua
donated all of the landscaping supplies, a
total value of $12,500. Some of the adaptations for DeWitt, who wears prosthetics on
both arms, include sensor-activated faucets, pull-down shelving, sliding windows,
and other things that most people take for
granted.
Homes for Our Troops builds 32 homes
per year for veterans around the country.
Seventy percent of the funds raised to buy
properties and build homes come from private donors and grants, with the remaining
30 percent from corporate sponsors. A
"key ceremony" will be held Saturday Nov.
8, 2014 at 11 a.m. An escort will bring SSG
DeWitt to the home site and we encourage
all supporters to line the street to help welcome this veteran to his new home.
The ceremony will begin at 11:00 a.m.
and distinguished guests will address the
audience. At the conclusion of the ceremony, SSG DeWitt will be given the keys
to his specially adapted home. After the
Ceremony guests are welcome to tour the
home.
John Stark hosts Weare's 250th Grand Finale
John Stark Regional High School
hosted the grand finale of Weare's 250th
celebration. Weare history came alive in
plays and music which entertained a large
crowd in the school cafeteria during a special luncheon on Sunday.
All 200 tickets were sold and the
assembled enjoyed a traditional New
England boiled dinner or turkey and beans.
Students and town organizations con-
structed interactive displays in the atrium
and Principal Christopher Corkery rang a
historic hand-held school bell as a call to
dinner. A highlight of the event was a violin
performance by Elizabeth Poehlman, a student from Henniker, on an antique violin,
handmade by Weare resident Ebenezer
Eastman in 1856. The 250th luncheon
was the only time the violin will be played
publicly.

Weare Middle School prepares foods of other countries
Weare Middle School Students in
Family and Consumer Science (FACS)
classes, are "traveling" to other countries
this year; starting off with The Netherlands.
6th, 7th and 8th graders are learning valuable kitchen skills, like using
a stove safely, and proper clean up,
while preparing Pannekoeken (Dutch
pancakes), Spekulaas (Dutch windmill
cookies), and Boerekook (farmer’s cab-
bage with kielbasa). Each lesson begins
with FACs Teacher Wilhemina Bodine
demonstrating making the recipe and
teaching standard food safety operating procedures and clean up. During the
following class session, the students get
to prepare the recipe themselves, sample
what they made, and clean up the kitchen.
As part of this unit on The Netherlands,
the students also created their own Delft
Blue Tiles on paper.
Henniker 1st graders Trick or Treat for Food Pantry
The Henniker Community School's
first grade will participate in a service
learning project this Halloween by asking
community members to put a non-perishable food item along with a treat into their
Trick or Treat bags. All non-perishable
items collected by the first graders will be
given to the Henniker Food Pantry.
Students will create and practice a
special “Trick or Treat” speech during the
next few days to explain why they are collecting canned goods on Halloween when
they knock on doors.
“I created this project for the class
so students could see firsthand what it
means to give back to their community,”
said Senecal, a student at New England
College. She is teaching in Mrs. Nye’s
first grade at HCS and will receive her
degree in May in both Special Education
and Elementary Education.
Trick or Treating in Henniker this year
will be on Friday, October 31 from 5:30 to
7:30. All First graders from Mrs. Nye’s,
Mrs. VanDenBerg’s, and Mrs. LeGrand’s
classes will participate in the Food Pantry
collection on Halloween.

Another not so charitable charity
In last week's Publisher's Perspective I questioned the charitable benefit
of Planet Aid's clothing collection boxes.
This week, I raise the same questions
about Big Hearted Books and their white
collection boxes.
Unlike Planet Aid, Big Hearted Books
does not brag about being a 501C3 nonprofit corporation. Below, I quote directly
from its web site where it discloses that it
"repurposes" the books by reselling them
on line, not distributing them free to the
needy. It hopes the public will assume
that it does.
"Based in Sharon, MA, Big Hearted
Books & Clothing Inc. collects unwanted
media, including books, records, CDs,
video games and DVDs all throughout
New England, and redistributes them to
people who can use them. In 2014, the
firm expanded its collection services to
include clothing & shoes. Big Hearted
Books & Clothing Inc. plans to use the additional revenue earned from the sale of
clothing to help fund its book program.
Established in 2009, Big Hearted
Books & Clothing Inc. keeps more than
5000 tons of books out of landfills annually. Ninety percent of the books collected
by Big Hearted Books & Clothing are repurposed. They are sold wholesale or
on-line or given to groups in need, such
as prisons, senior centers, kindergartens
and town libraries. Big Hearted Books &
Clothing Inc. not only shares its love of
books, but also shares its profits from the
sale of books with the hosts of our collection containers."
Letters to the Editor
Dear Editor:
On Wednesday, September 17, I was
privileged to be at the New Hampshire
State Library, to view the stunning
collections of vintage black and white
photographs presented by the Hillsboro
Historic Society. This is an exhibit not to
be missed!
At the State Library, you can view
photographs that were taken by large
cameras using glass negatives, some
measuring 5 X 7 inches or more. The
photographer would have to set up an
elaborate tripod, load the glass negative ,
cover his head and the back of the camera
with a light proof cloth and, having only
one chance, click the shutter to make
the negative. Then he or she would have
to take that large glass negative into a
studio and with the use of an enlarger and
several liquid baths - create a large print
(photograph).
This exhibit is for all ages- take your
children and grandchildren; it’s free. They
not only will get to see and learn about the
history of the Town of Hillsboro and the
surrounding area, but will marvel at the
size and quality of the photographs as well.
The exhibit is open to the public from
8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through
Friday at the NH State Library, 20 Park
Street, next to the State House in Concord. The exhibit was curated by Gilman
Shattuck of Hillsboro Center and many
hard working members of the Hillsboro
Historic Society.

Wing of Richards School dedicated to Jim Lantz
The Kindergarten Wing of Newport’s
Richards School was dedicated to Jim
Lantz. Lantz who was the former owner of
Harrington’s Jewelers and long time resident of Newport was always interested in
Education. Richards’ School Principal Phil
Callahan read a proclamation and presented the Lantz family with the gold plaque
that will grace the wall in the Jim Lantz
wing. Son, Doug Lantz said it is an honor,
but one his father would probably shy away
from. David Lantz said his dad was always
interested in getting the best education for
students and was Chair of the School Board
in Brattleboro prior to the family moving to
Newport in 1970. Jim Lantz passed away
on March 17, of this year and was a role
model for citizenship
School officials meet with New Boston Selectmen
Superintendent Brian Balke, Principal
Tori Underwood and School Board Chairman Wendy Lambert met with the New
Boston Selectmen to discuss a handout
sent by Ray Labore regarding the school
unreserved fund balance for the town’s consideration at tax setting time. The final unreserved fund balance was $694,757. A significant contributing factor to this amount
was Goffstown voters voting down the
school budget last year resulting in a lower
than planned tuition rate for New Boston
students attending Goffstown schools. This
past March voters approved the school
budget and this type of fund balance is not
expected to happen next year. Returns of
health insurance premium overpayments
was also a contributing factor. This budget
cycle there was only a Warrant Article for
the Special Education CRF and that deposit
was taken into account when finalizing the
unreserved fund balance.
The Selectmen asked about the status of
the cupola project at the SAU building. Brian noted the SAU is in favor of removing the
cupola entirely for now and roofing over the
area and maybe recreating it in the future
and have taken the position that the building lease contract with Goffstown allows
that. Goffstown is in favor of rebuilding the
cupola at $70,000. Money is encumbered
for the project. The school administration
are now working on construction issues at
the white buildings jointly with the Recreation Department. This was an unexpected
expenditure.
Peterborough Theatre celebrates its 100th birthday
The Peterborough Community Theatre
celebrated its 100th birthday Sunday with
a silent film fest and party.Theater owners
Roy and Judy Mills of Hancock ran silent
films harkening back to the movie house’s
original days. Patrons also gathered in the
lobby to share memories of frequenting the
theater as children and teens growing up
in the region. Roy Mills gave tours of the
projector room. The theater was originally
named The Gem and opened in 1914 with
a seating capacity of 550. The Mills bought
the theater six years ago. Over the past
century it has been the town’s one and only
movie theater and has survived updates,
renovations and a fire that nearly burned
the building to the ground in 1945. In the
1970s, a stage was added and it became a
venue for folk music. In 1984, the building
was reconfigured into a 95-seat

New Boston to change health insurance
New Boston Town Administrator Peter Flynn and Laura
Bernard presented the selectmen with employee health insurance options. Flynn noted if the town changes to Schoolcare by
Cigna, premiums will be stabilized for three years with potential savings for this year. They were joined by Police Chief Jim
Brace in recommending the town change health insurance carriers to Schoolcare. This was discussed briefly with the Department Managers at their recent meeting and if the Selectmen
approve, a representative from Schoolcare will hold a meeting
for all employees and their spouses to discuss what they offer.
Flynn also surveyed surrounding towns for the amount they
pay employees who waive health insurance coverage and found
New Boston’s current amount is the lowest in the area and it
was proposed that New Boston increase the amount it offers.
The Board voted 3-0 to support Flynn's proposal.
Antrim sex offender is convicted again
Max Wilson, 69, of Antrim was convicted on four felony
counts of prohibition from child-care services. Under the law,
he is barred from engaging in "volunteer service involving the
care, instruction or guidance of a minor child." He was found
guilty on Wednesday of violating his registry requirements by
caring for a 14-year-old boy in Concord early this year. Wilson
has been accused of molesting the boy on two occasions in
January, but those were not part of this case. A sentencing date
has yet to be scheduled, pending the outcome of those other
charges. In 2005, he was convicted of second-degree sexual
abuse for having contact with a 12-year-old boy in New York,
and sentenced to a year in jail.

in direct damage. On average, seven people died in
U.S. home fires per day from 2007 to 2011.
Cooking is the leading cause of home fires and home
fire injuries, followed heating equipment.
Smoking is a leading cause of civilian home fire
deaths. Most fatal fires kill one or two people. In

in g

with no smoke alarms or no working smoke alarms.
Working smoke alarms cut the risk of dying in
reported home fires in half. In fires considered large
enough to activate the smoke alarm, hardwired
alarms operated 93% of the time, while battery
powered alarms operated only 79% of the time.
When smoke alarms fail to operate, it is usually because batteries are missing, disconnected, or dead.
An ionization smoke alarm is generally more responsive to flaming fires and a photoelectric smoke
alarm is generally more responsive to smoldering
fires. For the best protection, or where extra time
is needed, to awaken or assist others, both types of
alarms, or combination ionization and photoelectric
alarms are recommended.
Escape Planning
According to an NFPA survey, only one-third of
Americans have both developed and practiced
a home fire escape plan. Almost three-quarters
of Americans do have an escape plan; however,
more than half never practiced it. One-third (32%)
of respondents who made an estimate thought
they would have at least 6 minutes before a fire
in their home would become life threatening. The
time available is often less. Only 8% said their first
thought on hearing a smoke alarm would be to get
out.
Cooking
U.S. Fire Departments responded to an estimated
annual average of 156,600 cooking-related fires
between 2007-2011, resulting in 400 civilian deaths,
5,080 civilian injuries and $853 million in direct
damage. Two of every five home fires started in the
Henniker

kitchen. Unattended cooking was a factor in 34%
of reported home cooking fires. Two-thirds of home
cooking fires started with ignition of food or other
cooking materials. Ranges accounted for the 57%
of home cooking fire incidents. Ovens accounted
for 16%. Children under five face a higher risk of
non-fire burns associated with cooking and hot
food and drinks than being burned in a cooking
fire. Microwave ovens are one of the leading home
products associated with scald burn injuries not
related to fires. According to the National Electronic
Injury Surveillance System, two out of five of the
microwave oven injuries seen at emergency rooms
in 2011 were scald burns. Clothing was the item first
ignited in less than 1% of home cooking fires, but
these incidents accounted for 15% of the cooking
fire deaths.
Heating
The leading factor contributing to heating equipment fires was failure to clean, principally creosote
from solid fueled heating equipment, primarily
chimneys. Portable or fixed space heaters, including
wood stoves, were involved in one-third (33%) of
home heating fires and four out of five (81%) home
heating deaths. Half of home heating fire deaths
resulted from fires caused by heating equipment too
close to things that can burn, such as upholstered
furniture, clothing, mattresses or bedding. In most
years, heating equipment is the second leading
cause of home fires, fire deaths, and fire injuries.
Fixed or portable space heaters are involved in about
4 out of 5 heating fire deaths.

Smoking materials
During 2007-2011 smoking materials caused an
estimated 17,900 home structure fires, resulting in
580 deaths, 1,280 injuries and $509 million in direct
property damage, per year. Sleep was a factor in
31% of the home smoking material fire deaths.
Possible alcohol impairment was a factor in one in
five (18%) of home smoking fire deaths. In recent
years, Canada and the United States have required
that all cigarettes sold must be "fire safe," that is
have reduced ignition strength and less likely to
start fires.
Electrical
About half (48%) of home electrical fires involved
electrical distribution or lighting equipment. Other
leading types of equipment were washer or dryer,
fan, portable or stationary space heater, air conditioning equipment water heater and range.
Electrical failure or malfunctions caused an average
of almost 48,000 home fires per year, resulting in
roughly 450 deaths and nearly $1.5 billion in direct
property damage.
Candles
During 2007-2011 candles caused 3% of home fires,
4% of home fire deaths, 7% of home fire injuries
and 6% of direct property damage from home fires.
On average, there are 32 home candle fires reported
per day. More than one-third of these fires (36%)
started in the bedroom; however, the candle
industry found that only 13% of candle users burn
candles in the bedroom most often. Nearly three in
five candle fires (56%) start when things that can
burn are too close to the candle.

“It would appear to have been made
before 1850,” Reidy said. “There’s no way
of determining exactly how old it is, but
it was entirely handmade and has been
repaired a number of times.” The flag
features 13 stars for the original colonies,
which appear to have been sewn on randomly, rather than in a circle. The field of
blue is in excellent condition, but the flag
as a whole is showing its age. Its edges are
tattered.
The flag needs to be preserved, Reidy
said, but was quick to point out that it
would not be a “restoration” project.
“It would not be appropriate to try to
add something to it,” Reidy said.
The flag will be cleaned and mounted
to conserve it in its current condition.
The historical society is setting up a
new exhibit to showcase the flag once it
has been preserved, along with a Henry F.
Miller Square Grand Piano, a parlor piano
that has been in the society’s collection for
decades. The exhibit will be called “She’s a
Grand Old Flag.”
“When it is restored to a playable
condition, it can be used for programming
and events at the society,” Reidy said.The
total estimated cost for preserving the flag
and piano is $7,500, based on estimates
from Museum Textiles Services and Piano
Artisans in Fitchburg, MA.
To pay for these services, Reidy said
the board planned to raise the first $1,000
among themselves, and then appeal to
society members and local civic organizations to pitch in the rest.
“The donations have started to come
in, so we’re pretty excited about that,” he
said.
Reidy said the 13-star flag is “by its
nature an attraction” and something Goffstown residents should be proud to have.
“It’s something that, I think, we all, as
Americans, take pride in,” he said.
Reidy added that it is possible that
descendants of the flag’s creator are still
living in Goffstown.
The society hopes to raise the $7,500
by the end of the year and plans to open
the exhibit once fundraising passes the
halfway mark.
Donations may be directed to the Goffstown Historical Society, P.O. Box 284,
Goffstown, NH 03045. For more information, call 497-4306 or visit goffstownhistoricalsociety.org.

Discussion of New London Dispatch Center intensifies
New London Town Administrator Kim
Hallquist informed the Selectmen that
Primex has finished its evaluation of New
London Dispatch, and suggested that a
meeting with the other towns served by the
dispatch center be scheduled.
Selectman Peter Bianchi cautioned that
before meeting with the towns, the board
should review he report as there are issues
he doesn't understand and some of the
numbers are off.
Police Chief Ed Andersen pointed out
that the report doesn't include that if dispatch is closed, he must hire one full-time
dispatch officer to handle walk-ins and
calls coming in during the day. He also said
they will still need the new repeater and
console and he doesn't know how that will
affect the ffinal figures.
Bianchi said the report didn't include
new equipment or the condition of equipment and only mentions policies and
procedures for dispatch if they go somewhere else. A meeting is being scheduled
with the selectmen from the towns New
London Dispatch serves on Oct 11 at 9 a.m.
The New London Selectmen will discuss
the report further at their next meeting,
scheduled for Sept. 30.

Dragon, although a vote could have been
taken on the proposal at the meeting
Monday night of the city council, the
Franklin School Board and the SAU 18
School Board, it was decided instead to
study the idea further. The proposed
consolidation would bring the school’s
payroll, accounting and other financial
functions to city hall so that school finance
officers and managers can work more
closely with their city counterparts. Dragon said the proposal could come again
before a joint meeting of the council and
school boards as soon as mid-November.
