Responding to what he said were misleading statements in a news release by the Ossipee Lake Alliance, Selectman Harry Merrow on Monday said three of four town beaches are too small, and the town's one larger beach gets plenty of use.

Freedom’s Planning Board will not try to revoke a year-old agreement with Totem Pole Park that allows campers to stay 11 months on the condition that two alleged violators of the agreement come into compliance by properly registering their motor vehicles.

eeping the pressure on state and local officials to reject plans for a public beach on Ossipee Lake, a lakeside homeowners' group wrote the state's top development official that a beach at Long Sands is “not in the best interest of the lake or the people of the state.”

Selectman Jim Breslin violated the privacy rights of Totem Pole Park residents by reading a list of names at a public meeting of people he says registered their cars at town hall in violation of an agreement between the town and campground, charges the campground's lawyer.

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.
