If selectmen can iron out a contract with The Nature Conservancy this week, the board could jump on the group’s $2,500 bid to survey rare plants at the proposed site of an Ossipee Lake public beach.
After an announcement of an early drawdown this year reportedly caused panic among some boaters, state and local officials will sit down and talk about how best to lower Ossipee Lake in the future.
Ossipee has the potential to be a premier snowmobiling destination, but it needs more trails and volunteers, says a local man who hopes to lay 15 miles of new trail from Ossipee Lake to Effingham.
Frustrated that Totem Pole Park residents are registering their cars at town hall in violation of a one-year-old agreement that allows campers to stay 11 months, the planning board unanimously decided to hold a public hearing, a necessary first step to revoking it.
Ossipee could spend as much as $4,000 as soon as September on a rare plants survey as part of development of an Ossipee Lake public beach.
