Longer-form draft.
Two major public safety and infrastructure issues took center stage at the March 16 Select Board meeting, leaving residents with more questions than answers. First, the Town Manager reported that sewer siphon cleaning had to be temporarily halted. The cause? The discovery of residual contaminated material from a former manufactured natural gas plant that has migrated into the northern siphon. The Board has directed the Town Manager to provide specific clarification regarding the identity and location of unknown pipes found during this process. Residents deserve to know exactly what was found and what the mitigation plan looks like. Second, the development of Pairpoint Park continues to face scrutiny. Despite progress in fundraising, the project is still grappling with concerns regarding subsurface conditions, ADA accessibility, and the timeline for 'filling the hole.' While board members expressed a desire to move forward, they stopped short of providing a concrete timeframe for when the park will be safe and ready for community use. We will continue to monitor these developments and the Town's follow-up actions regarding both the sewer contamination and the Pairpoint Park safety protocols. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/exeter/select-board/2026-03-16/ #MeetingWatch #ExeterNH
