We would like to take a minute and thank the volunteers for the Charrette Design hosted by Plan NH. This process has been roughly a year and a half in the making. The office staff has worked very diligently on organizing, meeting with the project managers with the Charrette team, and contacting businesses for their support. The comradery that the Town displayed was impressive, and the Charrette team said it was an extremely successful event. We could not have done this without all of the participation we had. A huge THANK YOU to all of the folks that were involved. A final report will be sent to the Selectmen; it can take roughly 2-3 months. If you have questions about how it went, please don't hesitate to reach out to the office staff. ![]()

Today is National Police Woman Day![]()
![]()
National Police Woman Day is celebrated each year on September 12. The day acknowledges and celebrates the contribution of female police officers who enforce law and order around the country. Today, only roughly 10% of the police force in the United States is made up of women. National Police Woman Day hopes to rectify that by encouraging more women to join the service. Campaigns and events are organized to urge more women to take up law enforcement roles. Along with expressing gratitude to these officers, the day also hopes for a future where law enforcement bodies will have stronger female representation.![]()

Please join us in recognizing our very own Detective Kristin Tracy along with the many other outstanding women in law enforcement.
