Background

In response to news late this summer that Liberty Utilities planned to secure a demolition permit by the end of December 2020, Mayor Jim Bouley appointed an ad-hoc committee to identify preservation and redevelopment options that are compatible with the community’s vision for this area of the City and be a win-win for preservation and economic opportunities.  Councilor Byron Champlin chairs the committee and is joined by Councilors Jennifer Kretovic, Linda Kenison, Brent Todd, and Robert Werner. Additional committee members are Tim Sink from the Concord Chamber of Commerce, Huck Montgomery from Liberty Utilities and leaders in real estate, preservation, redevelopment – Jon Chorlian, Liz Durfee Hengen, Bill Norton, Frank Lemay and Ben Wilson.

The N.H. Preservation Alliance, the statewide historic preservation organization, is supporting the effort. ADG, LLC has been hired to provide analysis and redevelopment options to the Committee with funding from the City and the Preservation Alliance. More info here.
