Good News for Newport Middle and
High School (NMHS) and Sugar River Valley Regional Technical Center. Principal
Linda Sutton announced last Thursday
that the school received its accreditation from New England Association of
Schools and Colleges, Inc. (NEASC). A
NEASC peer review team visited the
school last September and interviewed
the staff in addition to collecting evidence to evaluate the school’s self-study.
The Energizer Bunny

George Arvanetaki, volunteer extraordinaire who spent most of his time last
weekend single-handedly cleaning
Grimes
Field

Balloon
Fest. Constantly on
the go at a
rapid pace,
committee
members

at his contribution and visitors commented that the field had never been
cleaner during an event. Thanks George.
Not bad for an 83-year-old.

Another $260,000
Weare settles another Police Department lawsuit
Former Police Chief John Velleca is long
gone, but his legacy continues to haunt the Town
of Weare. Last week, it was announced that the
town and its insurance carrier had settled a suit
brought by former police sergeant Joe Kelley,
who claimed he was wrongfully terminated by
Velleca. Kelley was fired amid allegations that
he falsified documents after a bust, which ended
with two officers shooting an unarmed man. He
later sued the town, claiming the dismissal was
retribution for self-reporting post-traumatic
stress disorder.
Kelley’s $260,000 payout includes $156,000
in compensatory damages and $90,000 in attorney fees, which is $40,000 less than the sum
paid to the family of the bust victim.
Weare has agreed to rescind his dismissal
and remove any mention of “events giving rise to
this lawsuit and any disciplinary action imposed
by the Town as a result,” from his personnel file
His departure will now be classified as "retirement."
Bow's Public Safety Committee extends bid deadline
Bids for a consultant to assist Bow's Public
Safety Building Committee were due on July
6, but the Town received only one bid. Some
members know a few people on the bidder’s reference list and will reach out to those references
for input. There was discussion on the bidder’s
qualifications. Town Manager David Stack told
the Committee that they haven’t opened the
bid/price quoted and that it remains sealed.
The Committee agreed the bidder seemed very
qualified, but wondered about experience in
designing space needs for the departments. The
Committee decided to ask the bidder to come to
their July 13, 2015 meeting for an interview, and
also decided to extend the RFP until July 17, in
anticipation of receiving other bid proposals.

TAKE YOUR MEDICINE
A popular indigestion medication can increase
survival in colorectal cancer, according to research
published in ecancermedicalscience . Cimetidine
Tagamet treats indigestion by blocking histamine
receptors in the gut, which decreases the production of gastric acid. It also appears to block histamine receptors in cancer cells, as well as supporting the immune system’s defenses against cancer.
BY SARAH CHAPIN
Cimetidine has been shown to have positive effects
in colorectal and gastric cancer, melanoma, and renal cell carcinoma.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the anti-clotting
drug Savaysa (edoxaban tablets) to reduce the risk of stroke and
dangerous blood clots (systemic embolism) in patients with atrial
fibrillation that is not caused by a heart valve problem. Atrial fibrillation is one of the most common types of abnormal heart rhythm. It
occurs when the heart’s two upper chambers (atria) do not contract
properly, allowing blood clots to form, which can break off and travel
to the brain or other parts of the body. Patients with atrial fibrillation
experience an abnormal, irregular and rapid heartbeat.

The Veterans Committee met with the Newbury Selectmen to
discuss the electricity for the future flag pole. Ed Thorson asked
about solar lights being used and was told the plan is in five years
to go solar because by then the solar should be better and more
advanced than they are today and that will be when they begin the
new safety service building. Marty Newell talked to Eversource
and they will do the work for $2000 instead of the regular $3600
if the work is done by the end of July. Eversource is charging
because this is cosmetic instead of functional. Newell is good to go
after Old Home Day, and said we will start ASAP.
Sunapee man injured in Wilmot crash
A Sunapee man received minor contusions after his Dodge
Neon collided with a phone pole last night on North Wilmot Road
in Wilmot. Speed was a contributing factor. The Dodge Neon had
to be towed from the scene. The driver was taken to the hospital
for his injuries and released.

Greater Hillsborough Senior Services wants control over town funds
Things got a little heated at Tuesday's
Hillsborough Selectmen's meeting as
two groups formed to provide services
to the town's senior citizens faced off.
The Board had invited representatives of both the Greater Hillsborough
Senior Services (GHSS) and the Senior
Advisory Council (SAC) to discuss the
recent letter from GHSS asking that SAC
be abolished and all senior services be
funded and run through GHSS.
The letter signed by GHSS President
Pat Mathison labeled SAC as "a major
roadblock to the ability of GHSS to promote and develop services and programs
for seniors." It claims SAC "has arbitrarily, based solely on personal wishes,
feelings, or perceptions, rather than on
objective facts, reasons, or principle,
refused without any rationale to honor
the budget that was presented."
It goes on to claim that "GHSS has
no operating funds of its own," although earlier in the letter it asserts that
"Seniors in our area have repeatedly,
enthusiastically, and financially demonstrated their support of the activities of
GHSS." Representatives who claimed
that "SAC exerts unreasonable control
over the funds that were voted for GHSS
at the Hillsborough Town Meeting"
were quickly corrected by Chair Wendy
Brien-Baker, who reminded them that
voters had firmly rejected funding the
GHSS budget, insisting that all funds be
allocated to SAC.
Member Jim Bailey scolded the
Representatives of GHSS and SAC made their points before the Hillsborough Selectmen during
heated exchanges Tuesday evening.
group for "wasting money" by forming a separate corporation which owns,
maintains and insures the new bus,
rather than have title held by the town as
represented at town meeting. The Board
unanimously ruled that SAC had acted
properly in refusing to fund GHSS's
requests for reimbursement.
The Board went a step further
and renewed the charge to SAC as
follows."The purpose of the Senior
Advisory Committee is to advise the
Senior Activities Director and the Board
of Selectmen, to help promote senior activities in the Town of Hillsborough and
to recommend the approval of expendi-
tures of tax funds raised and appropriated for that purpose.
The Senior Advisory Committee shall
work cooperatively with all responsible
groups or individuals who promote
services of programs designed for senior
citizens of Hillsborough and surrounding towns.
The committee shall submit a request for funds along with a justifying
budget each year in time for approval by
the Board of Selectmen and the annual
Budget Hearing, as well as write a report
of the past year's programs and future
proposals for inclusion in the Annual
Town Report."

The Piscataquog Land Conservancy has purchased a 101-acre
parcel near Black Brook which will be preserved and open to the
public through a partnership with the Goffstown Conservation
Commission. PLC closed on the property in March and is currently in the process of fundraising to pay back the loan, which
is due early next year. Between the loan and other fees, PLC is
looking to raise $260,000. The Town of Goffstown has committed to fund up to $150,000. The rest will be paid potentially with
grants – PLC has applied for grants through the Land and Community Heritage Investment Program and the State Department
of Environmental Services – and private fundraising if need be.
Wells said PLC would be able to reduce the portion the town pays
if it wins both grants.

Banerjee of Wilmot, has filed a new lawsuit in NH Superior Court,
requesting more than twice the $20.7 million she initially sued
for. In 2013 she sued, claiming officials had arbitrarily enforced
a 35-foot height ordinance while leading her to believe that the
home was within legal limits, by issuing her multiple building
permits. Banerjee's new suit, filed pro se, asks for an award of $49
million.

High speed Internet Service proposed for New Boston
Dr. Alexander R. Tambascia and his
colleague Robert Brown presented the
New Boston Selectmen with a proposal for
the formation of a Community Internet
Service for the Town.
The proposal was to establish a
community internet service to provide
economical high speed internet access to
residents and small businesses. The system would be designed to use profits from
the internet service to reduce property
taxes for residents. They proposed using
two key Federal grants to establish a community internet service and reduce the tax
obligation from the public.
Joe Constance asked what the number
of households in town amounted to and
Christine thought it was about 1100. Once
established and fully operational within
New Boston the next step would be to create a regional expansion to include Goffstown and Milford to create a larger community of users. They presented a packet
that referred to various resources relating
the subject at hand that also included
several pages of communities throughout
the country that already have established
such a service. By consensus the Board
asked Town Administrator Peter Flynn to
further communicate with the presenters
and told them that they would take their
request under advisement.
Pierre Hahn, France Hahn, Hanna Koby and Garrett Bauer have opened the Sweet Beet

Elkins Fish & Game host Archery and Duck Box programs
Children attending New London Recreation's summer programs learned about
archery and duck boxes through a partnering with a local outdoor organization.
Elkins Fish & Game Club members gave
a lecture, describing how placing nesting boxes in wood duck and merganser
habitats in the area have helped the birds
to increase their populations. EF&GC also
hosted another group of children at the
club’s archery range on Pine Hill Road in
Wilmot.
The duck box presentation was given
to about 30 children, attending the Sun ‘n
Fun Day Camp. They heard EF&GC President Mike Gelcius describe the plight of
the wood duck, which was hunted to near
extinction in the early 20th Century. The
club, among others, has taken an active
role in keeping the colorful waterfowl off
of the endangered species list.
Gelcius told the children his club has
15 boxes on Beaver Pond at the Esther
Courier Wildlife Management Area, 12
at the marsh on the Kidder property off
Mountain Road, and three more in Turtle
Cove on Pleasant Lake.
The final part of the presentation en-
tailed assembly of a bird-nesting box, with
the children helping to drive the screws
needed to firmly attach all the box’s sections.
Once assembled, the campers autographed the box to commemorate their
part in the wood duck restoration program. The box will be used this winter.
Elkins Fish & Game members Mike Gelcius and John McKenna help young New London campers assemble a wood duck nesting box during a club presentation in Whipple Hall. About 30 young campers
autographed the box to be placed in a local wetland to house a breeding family of wood ducks or

to pursue redevelopment and improvement to the Harbor area.
The Sunapee Harbor Riverway Corporation was founded in 1992
to preserve and protect the unique lakeside harbor and owns ten
properties in the harbor. There will be two public hearings on the
purchase and approval of the conservation commission and the
planning board before the purchase can go forward.

Town and school to share new generator
www.cyrlumber.com
New Boston Town Administrator Peter Flynn consulted with
Dick Perusse about the possibility of an “in kind” agreement to assist in the construction and prep work for the proposed new generator. He explained that this generator is going to be used also as part
of the town’s Emergency Management service in order to provide
power for the shelter use. An amount of approximately $3,000 was
suggested as a value from Flynn but School Board member Glenn
Dickey felt it would be much more value considering the amount of
dirt to be moved around from one place to another. The selectmen
directed Flynn to further pursue how a larger % of funding through
‘in kind’ services, as stated by Glenn Dickey, could be obtained.
The Board did agree with Mr. Flynn in that funding from a warrant
article for the 2016 budget would be most advisable and probable.
Sunapee Fire & EMS host Blood Drive
Open 7 days a week!
717 Route 103 E. Warner NH
603-746-4477
The Sunapee Fire & EMS Department will be hosting our
next blood drive on July 27 at the Safety Services Building. Donation hours will be 12 pm to 5 pm. Walk-ins are welcome as space
and time allow, but appointments are highly recommended. The
donations will be in the bloodmobile so space is limited. Sunapee
residents and our neighbors have been very generous in past events
and we have had to turn away some walk ins. To schedule an appointment go to www.redcrossblood.org and enter our zip code
of 03782. This year's drive is dedicated to the memory of Sunapee
Police Department member Rod Chandler who recently passed. Did
you know that your single unit of donated blood can help save the
lives of up to three people? Please eat well and drink plenty of fluids
prior to donating!

Mount Royal Academy now accredited
Mount Royal Academy is pleased to announce that in June
2015, the school received accreditation from the National Association of Private Catholic and Independent Schools (NAPCIS).
NAPCIS applies rigorous standards of excellence in academics
and Catholic identity to accredit private catholic schools across the
country. Already a long standing member of NAPCIS, Mount Royal
Academy applied for accreditation in June 2013, marking the first
attempt to do so since the school’s inception. The school’s leadership wisely recognized the necessity of completing this important
process. Mount Royal Academy received a full term (6 years) of
accreditation. The visiting team report, as well as the self-study are
available online for your review.
Crash victims' names are still not released
Nearly two weeks after the death of 17-year-old Trevor Gonyer
of Dunbarton in a car crash that severely injured two others, authorities still have not identified the other two teens injured in the crash.
Siting a continuing investigation, State Police Sgt. Steven Wheeler
in refusing to name any of the occupants, would only say “You don’t
know what I know.”The crash occurred on July 3, when a New Boston police officer, who also has not been named, attempted to stop
a 1997 GMC pickup carrying three “occupants” for operating the
vehicle without tail lights. The truck, heading northbound on Route
114, did not stop for the officer and crashed off the southbound
shoulder of the road, police said. All three occupants were ejected.

New London issues $20,075 zoning fine
The Town of New London is cracking down on lake dwellers who
commit zoning violations. At a recent meeting, the board approved
sending David Breed, owner of the property at 47 Moyahs Lane, a
certified letter informing him that the town is seeking legal advice on
its ability to issue a $20,075 fine against him. The letter states, "We
are pursuing legal advice as to fining you the maximum of our zoning which would be $20,075. We don't do this lightly but it appears
there's been a wanton disregard for town zoning and negotiations
and talks we had with you."
Henniker accepts Highway Garage bids
At a special meeting of the Henniker Selectmen on Monday
night, the board accepted two bids for the replacement of the highway garage destroyed in a fire. Groen Builders, Inc. and Budel Construction Corp. were awarded the contract for atonal of $977,480.
In a related matter, the controversy over the sale of some of the fire
damaged equipment took another turn when it was learned that
a Henniker contractor and Vehicle Replacement Subcommittee
member, Tim McComish, had purchased the old grader from the
insurance company, repaired it and is now operating it as part of his
business. Several residents are upset, remembering it was McComish who at Town Meeting argued strongly that the grader was unsafe
and unrepairable, and should not be repurchased from the insurance company. As a result, the town voted to accept the $116,250
insurance payout and not repurchase the grader for $8,000. Adding
fuel to the fire, McComish is apparently telling anyone who will
listen what a great deal he got.
Yet another suit against Weare police
Will it ever end? On page one readers will find the story outlining the latex settlement of suits against the Town of Weare and its
police department. Now, The Messenger has learned that Jennifer
Posteraro, the former administrative assistant who claimed she
was assaulted by former Weare police chief John Velleca is now
suing the town. In her suit, Posteraro claims that members of the
police department conducted two separate internal investigations
into her conduct, both after she filed protective orders against Velleca. Posteraro and her attorney say these investigations violated
the department’s own policies. It also claims that members of the
department retaliated against her when she returned to work making her work environment “hostile” with conditions “so difficult and
intolerable that a reasonable person subjected to them would feel
forced to resign.”

My wife and I always enjoy a hectic 4th of July, covering the varied Independence Day celebrations in the towns in our readership area. Without
detracting from any other town's festivities, I believe the town of New Boston had, by far, the best parade. In terms of participation by local groups,
number of floats, bands and marchers, New Boston features the largest number and greatest variety. The parade features both the newest (left photo)
and oldest (right photo) citizens of the town.
