Vote on Epsom Meeting House
1/24/2007 - Epsom, NH

Epsom residents will vote on February 13 on whether to accept a historic meeting house that will be demolished if it isn't moved out of the path of a new Cumberland Farms by March 1. At a deliberative session in January, a town-appointed building committee reported a strong need for new town offices and offered preliminary plans for a new facility that incorporates the landmark structure. The special session was attended by more than twice the number of people who have participated in recent town meetings, according to Town Moderator Gary Matteson. The vote is subject to conditions that appear to have been met-the Friends group has raised funds to cover the cost of the move and has negotiated terms with the owner and mover. The Epsom Meetinghouse is listed on the Alliance's 2006 Seven to Save list.
