Firefighter honored
Henniker honors the memory of Scott Davison
The Fire Department and the Henniker
community have come together to honor the
memory of Scott Davison, the 17-year veteran
of the Department, who was killed when he
struck a tree in Hopkinton. When Davison’s
family asked that donations be made to
the Henniker Firefighters Association, the
department continued to raise additional
money for the purchase of a special off-road
vehicle.
“Scott liked going off road on fourwheelers and Jeeps,” said Chief Keith Gilbert,
“so we decided to raise money to purchase a
UTV."
The UTV will allow emergency
responders to travel through the woods
or on unmaintained roads in order to
reach an accident scene or a brush fire.
$10,500 has been donated for the UTV and
firefighters pitched in the rest needed to
buy it. An additional $6,000 is needed to
outfit thevehicle with emergency equipment,
including a litter for carrying accident victims
over difficult terrain.

New London selectmen reviewing several possible warrant articles
The New London Selectmen spent
much of Tuesday's meeting discussing
potential warrant articles to be presented
at May's Town Meeting. As is tradition,
one article will seek approval for the
purchase of several capital items, but
because they are funded by separate
Capital Reserve Funds, there is no current
tax impact.
An article seeking an appropriation of
$670,000 for the Elkins Sidewalk project
will require only $134,038 of tax money
after applying anticipated grant money.
$75,125 is requested for a Dispatch
Simulcast System for the Fire Department,
but after the grant, only $37,563 of
taxpayer money is needed.
Purchasing two Dispatch Consoles off
the Police Department requires $97,000.
Potential grants could pay either 50% or
100%, but none has yet been applied for.
Creating a Police Special Detail
Revolving Fund would allow the
Department to retain money collected
from special details to be spent for police
expenses. Creating a similar Contingency
Fund would provide the town with a
$8,000 to defend
the Weare Police
Although the NH Attorney General has
not completed the investigation into the
shooting death of a suspected drug dealer,
the Concord Monitor has learned that
the Town of Weare has spent more than
$8,000 for attorneys representing officers
involved. The law firms include: the Law
Office of Daniel Duckett; Green & Utter;
Moir & Rabinowitz; Raimo & Murphy

Arrest at NEC gives new meaning to "Panty Raid"
Henniker police have arrested
Cameron Dial, a 20-year-old NEC student
from New jersey, on 5 counts of burglary
and 13 counts of receiving stolen property.
Authorities say Dial took bras and panties
and other clothing items from 18 female
students who live in the co-ed West Hall
dorm they shared.
The investigation began in January,
when police were informed of break-ins
in several dorm rooms at West Hall. Most
occupants were off on winter break at the
time, but Dial remained to take an elective
course. A student reported seeing Dial
in West Hall's laundry taking something
from a friend's dryer.
When confronted, Dial refused to let

officers into his room, but after executing
a search warrant, the police discovered
several pieces of women's clothing.
Dial has turned himself in and is free
on $6,000 cash bail pending arraignment
on April 15. He was freed after posting
$6,000 cash bail and will also face
$21,000 personal recognizance bail if he
violates the terms of his release. All the
personal items have been returned to their
owners, after being catalogued.
NEC spokesperson, Dia Kalakonas, has
confirmed that Dial is no longer a student
at the school in an email. She also said the
school takes student safety seriously, and
has been keeping the women informed as
the case progresses.

Henniker school staff aging too quickly?
The 100th day of school at the Henniker Community School
was last week so the students and teachers in Mrs. Mayo’s and
Mrs. LeGrand’s grade 1 classrooms dressed up as if they were 100
years old. Students also participated in activities that involved the
number 100 such as building something using 100 cups, stamping
10 stamps on 10 strips of paper to make paper rings, and making a
necklace with 100 pieces of cereal.
Two towns without power after pole hit
According to Newbury Police Chief Robert Lee a Florida driver
had unfamiliar Northeast weather, hit a utility pole on Routes 103
and 103A in Newbury leaving Bradford and Newbury residents
without electricity and phone service last Thursday morning.
Newbury Fire and Rescue had to extricate the woman from her
SUV and take her to New London Hospital for evaluation with non
life threatening injuries. Sunapee Police also assisted.
Voters reject cuts to ConVal school budget
At Thursday's deliberative session ConVal voters passed along
the District's proposed $45,793,510 operating budget, rejecting
attempts to reduce it. Gail Cromwell, a Temple Selectman and
former School Board member, moved to reduce the amount to
$45,022,549, the same as the default budget. The effort failed on a
vote of 62 yes-107 no. additionally, Cromwell proposed reducing
the parking lot paving warrant article to $0, which also failed, this
time by a vote of 64 yes -101 no. The budget and warrant articles
will now go to the polls on March 11th.

Newport Selectmen approve flat operating budget
Prior to presenting his budget to the
Selectmen, Newport Town Manager Paul
Brown cut $1.1 million from requests
made by the town’s department heads. The
Selectmen had asked Brown to prepare a
budget with a level-funded tax rate, and
that is exactly what he did. As proposed,
Brown's budget results in a projected tax
rate of $11.56/$1,000 of property valuation,
exactly the same as the current rate. A pool
of money has been set aside in the operating
budget to cover pay adjustments for town
employees including the police and public
works unions.
Should Town Meeting voters reject
the operating budget, the default budget
will result in a tax rate of $10.68/$1,000,
or .88/$1,000 cents less than the current
tax rate. Three warrant articles call for
$250,000 for paving work on Newport
streets; the initial payment on a highway
truck lease and $5,000 for a communication
capital reserve fund. If approved, they would
add an additional .74 to the tax rate. The
Board continued its budget review Monday
evening with no major changes.
Bradford Town Meeting place?
Town Clerk Erica Gross and Assistant
Moderator, Fred Hubley met with the
Bradford Selectmen to discuss where
Town Meeting could/should be held.
They pointed out the problems of a
possible over crowed condition if it is
held at the Bradford Elementary where it
is usually held.
The suggestion was again made to
consider the Middle School in Sutton as a
possible site. Other suggestions included
providing a tent, or holding it at the Town
Shed. The three selectmen were adamant
that voting would take place in Bradford
somewhere and that it will be worked out
soon. Administrator Cheryl Behr advised
the Town Report is waiting for the
finalized warrant, and most Department
Reports are in.
The Newport Selectmen continued their budget review Monday evening.

Beihl wants resignation of Antrim Selectman Chair & Town Administrator
The Antrim Selectmen dealt with a
rather routine agenda at Tuesday night's
meeting until resident Brian Beihl called
for the resignations of Selectman Chair
Gordon Webber and Town Administrator
Galen Stearns. According to Beihl, " Mr.
Webber and Mr. Stearns can no longer
represent the Town of Antrim objectively,
due to an inappropriate relationship with
a developer with whom the Town has
an operating agreement." Beihl said he
respects Webber's and Stearns' "right to be
passionate about a cause," but only in their
capacity as private citizens, not as public
officials.
He is upset that Webber and Stearns
appear in a video, paid for and produced
by Eolian Renewables LLC, which appears
on the Eolian Renewables website and
asserts that "No public official, however in
favor of a project, should ever appear to
advocate for a private company." Neither
Webber nor Stearns intends to resign.
Tax abatement costs $11,114
A decision of the Superior Court has
cost New London over $11,000. In
ruling on the tax appeal on Nicholas
Gilman's waterfront property, the court
found that the town's initial assessment
of $2,675,600 was acceptable, but the
impact of a sand bar on the value of the
property mandated a 25%, or $651,461.30
discount to the land, bringing the value to
$2,508,681.70, and resulting in a loss of
$11,114 in tax revenue.

Weare School District in need of critical technology update
Learning how to conduct a short
research project that builds knowledge
through investigation of different aspects
of a topic is a Common Core Standard that
must be met in fourth grade. Students at
Center Woods Elementary School were
trying their best to complete their research
projects, but the basic infrastructure of
the technology in their school building is
inadequate for such school work. Every
time a fourth grade class would attempt to
access the Internet to do research, all of the
computers at Center Woods, both student
and staff, would slow down or, often, just
shut down.
“After watching our students struggle
with stalling computers for three weeks,
we knew we needed to find a solution
or we would fail our students,” said
Center Woods Principal Jess Potter. It
was then that John Stark Regional High
School Principal Christopher Corkery
offered to have Center Woods bring their
fourth graders to the high school and use
their computers to do the work. “Steve
Law and Megan Hardy from our IT
department made it a reality by setting up
two computer labs for the Center Woods
students,” said Corkery.
The result? The fourth grade students
completed their projects at John Stark in
an hour and a half. Henniker Community School Teacher Peter Adamo is working with his 8th grade Tech Ed
students to prepare for an underwater robotics experiment at UNH as part of the SeaPerch
project. Leanne Chauvette photo.

Committee recommends keeping New London Dispatch Center
The committee studying New
London's Dispatch Center has made
its recommendation to the selectmen.
It concludes that although the town
absolutely could save money each year
by no longer funding the New London
Communications Center, life safety
of the emergency responders, and the
citizens they serve, should always be the
number one factor when making decisions
regarding the processes of emergency
services." In recommending that the town
maintain its current service, the report
concludes, " It is the opinion of those
compiling this research that continuing to
fund the New London Communications
Center is an extremely important part of
the Town's Emergency Services. To have

Henniker police arrest Florida fugitive from justice
On February 14th, officers from the
Deering and Henniker Police were
trying to locate a car that was stuck
in a snow bank off of Dudley Pond
Road. A Henniker officer found that
Kevin R. Vachon, 24, of Tamworth had
operated the vehicle. The passenger
was identified as Adam Richard
Hale, 22, of St. Petersburg, Florida.
When Hale's information was run the
officers learned that he had a warrant
for Attempted 1st Degree Murder,
Home Invasion Robbery, and Grand
Theft Motor Vehicle out of Putnam
County Florida. Both Hale and Vachon
were taken into custody. Hale as a
fugitive from justice, and Vachon for
possession of synthetic cannabinoids.

Publisher’s Perspective by Leigh Bosse
Disgusting
The N.H. Attorney General's Office has
finally released the details of its prolonged
investigation into the actions of former
New London Police Chief David Seastrand.
According to the report, one woman
reported that Seastrand offered to drop
charges against her if she posed nude for
him.
Another had sexual contact with
him while he was Chief, a third said that
Seastrand paid her speeding ticket in
exchange for her posing in lingerie, while a
fourth refused Seastrand's offer of cash for
taking nude photographs of her.
After reading the sordid details, only
one word describes most people's reaction
- disgusting.
Equally disgusting is the determination
that Seastrand will not face criminal
charges. Last December, Assistant Attor-
ney General Jane Young announced that
Seastrand would not be prosecuted for the
last three complaints, saying that "while
disturbing, {they} did not rise to the level
of criminal conduct.”
When you consider that in all these
incidents, the Chief was in full uniform,
once in his office, and at least twice in his
cruiser, it is difficult to understand why he
was not arrested for Abuse of Office under
RSA 643. Section 643:1 states, "A public
servant, as defined in [including a police
chief] is guilty of a misdemeanor if, with
a purpose to benefit himself or another or
to harm another, he knowingly commits
an unauthorized act which purports to be
an act of his office; or knowingly refrains
from performing a duty imposed on him
by law or clearly inherent in the nature of
his office."
Letters to the Editor
Dear Editor:
At the School Deliberative meeting,
approximately two thirds of
the people who attended were
associated with the school as employees
or school employee families. Certainly,
not a representation of all the voters of
Hillsboro/Deering.
Contrary to what has been printed, we
the concerned citizens of Hillsboro, believe
that the School Building needs maybe
necessary but also believe the process to
obtain the funds should remain in the
voters hands not in hands of the School
Board.
The process of giving the Tax Payers
a vote by presenting Capital Expenditures
through Warrant Articles is at stake in
ARTICLE 8 of the School Board Budget.
If Article 8 passes, the voters of Hillsboro/
Deering will lose their right and control to
vote for or against Capital Expenditures
at the School now and in the future.
Capital Improvements should be at
the discretion of the Voter not just the
School Board. We, as voters, have always
responded responsibly when clear and
factual evidence has been presented to us
for approval by a Warrant Article.
Keep the power of your vote and vote
no on article 8 !!!!

Dear Editor:
The InCasts and RBA ecumenical
Middle and High School youth groups
at Smith Memorial Church would like to
thank everyone who made our "Superbowl
Subs and more" fundraiser such a big
success. A huge thank you goes to Kiki
Mauridis (and staff ) at Hillsboro House of
Pizza, once again we could not have done
it without you and your suppliers, Costas
Provision of Boston, LaMarca and Sons
Bakery of Malden, Mass. and Granite State
Fruit of Manchester, NH, who generously
provided the rolls, produce and meats for
the subs. Shaw’s Supermarkets once again
supplied containers for the chili and bean
dip and JD Foods gave us a discount on
the ingredients. Thanks also to our local
papers, the Messenger and The Villager.
Some others we would like to recognize,
Arlene Johns, Becky and Fred Parisi, Don
Veitch, Dave Dick, Fran Charron, Yvonne
Bachand and Camille Gibson. And finally
www.granitequill.com | february 21, 2014 | The Messenger | Page 11
the youth groups would like to thank all of
you who bought subs, chili and bean dip
or made a donation. The support of this
community is making a big difference in
the lives of our young citizens. Thank You!

Dear Editor:
When John Segedy got elected on the
school board. He served one term and
was not reelected. There was strife even
the minutes could not get approved. The
chairman of the school board resigned.
John Segedy gets appointed to take
planning board minutes and Gary Sparks
resigns.
John talks about saving money at school
board meetings and then he supports a
teacher's contract that cost the taxpayers in
Hillsboro a lot of money and will continue
to raise our taxes every year. Often John
says "give us back our money" and yet this
year the school board is trying to return
money to the taxpayers and John does
not like the way they are doing it which
happens to be the way the state of New
Hampshire said is the legal way to do it.
John talks about what is legal and
how people are to follow the law and yet
he is in violation of local and state law by
having more than two unregistered motor
vehicles on his property and who knows
how many other violations. Because of this
John fights against zoning ordinances and
anything he perceives might time available
for town staff for enforcement. If you want
a negative influence and a loose cannon
running the town vote for him.
There is another choice, Alan Urquhart,
a man that's been a positive influence in
Hillsboro trying to improve life for all of
us. Alan is retired after working 40 years
in a Department of Corrections. Alan is
intelligent having graduated magna cum
laude with a bachelor of arts and then
went on to get a master's degree in public
administration. He has served with the
Hillsboro youth services committee and
diversion program, member of Hillsboro
pride, member of the Hillsboro community
action team, and was elected chairman
of the Hillsboro economic development
committee by his peers that respect him.
Peter Fellman, Hillsborough
****************************************
Fellow Citizens of Hillsborough,
When you go to the polls in March you
will have a chance to vote for democracy. Article 3 will adopt the SB2 form of
meetings for the future. Here is why I
believe we should adopt SB2: Because
everyone should have a voice in the
town's affairs. Unfortunately too many
of our citizens are unable to attend Town
Meeting. Some work second shift; some
have family at home to care for; some
are out of town on business, wintering
elsewhere or attending school; and some
don't drive at night or at all. For whatever
reason, attendance at Town Meeting rarely
exceeds a couple of hundred voters out of
a population in the area of six thousand. I dare say that even those of us who do
attend meetings know friends or family
who don't. It is not our place to judge their
reasons. The rest of our citizens deserve to
be heard.
For those who like the tradition of
Town Meeting or feel that being able
to discuss the issues with each other
helps them make a good decision, that
opportunity still exists at the first or as
it is commonly known – the deliberative
session. Under 'SB2' we get the best of
both worlds – a meeting to discuss and
then everyone having a vote!
For those that may want to research
and find out more about an issue after
hearing a point made by a fellow citizen at
the meeting, this also allows the time to do
so. Under the current system, if someone
brings up a point during discussion, one
has to make a snap decision about it. As
someone who does speak at meetings,
I would be presumptuous to expect my
neighbors to accept what I have to say
as gospel. None of us are perfect, so
having a break before the final vote allows
research to confirm something said. It also
allows time to discuss the issues in other
settings with people that couldn't make
the meeting or who perhaps just aren't
comfortable speaking in a large venue.
The bottom line is that SB2 will
increase the number of us participating in
our affairs. This is a win for democracy and
a win for our town.
Thank you for your thoughtful
consideration of this issue.
John Segedy, Hillsborough

Bradford Selectmen reject Budget Committee's Fire Truck proposal
Dick Keller, Chair of the Budget
Committee presented the selectmen with
a different proposal for Article Fifteen in
the Warrant regarding the purchasing
of a tanker truck for the fire department.
The Committee proposes appropriating
$232,000 to purchase a new tanker
style fire truck, replacing existing unit 82
M-4, 1980 International tanker truck, by
authorizing the withdrawal of $152,000
from the Capital Reserve Fund, $80,000
by taxation. After much discussion
between Fire Chief, Mark Goldberg,
Keller and the selectmen, the selectmen
unanimously agreed to stay with their
original Article 15 which calls for a lease
purchase agreement for the tanker truck
by raising $152,000 for the down payment
and first years payment under the
agreement. The total cost of the truck over
four years will be $238,100. The annual
payments for the remaining three years
will be $28,700 per year. Keller advised
that the Budget Committee still does not
recommend Article Fifteen as written.
