Laconia City Council Meeting Update: June 18, 2026 During the June 18 City Council meeting, several items were discussed that carry significant implications for Laconia residents, specifically regarding our finances and public health. First, the city is facing a major potential expense. An insurance company is seeking $250,000 in reimbursement from the city for damages resulting from a water main break that occurred in 2014. This represents a substantial financial liability that could impact the city budget and, ultimately, taxpayers. Regarding student safety, the Council discussed lead testing at the high school following recommendations from the DES. While PFOA levels were reported as not being a concern, the issue of lead requires ongoing attention. City officials have been tasked with meeting to specifically address the lead concerns to ensure water safety for students and staff. Finally, the 2016/2017 budget was presented for review. A key part of the discussion involved determining appropriate levels for city savings funds. We will continue to monitor how these budgetary decisions affect our community's long-term fiscal health. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/laconia/city-council/2026-06-18/ #MeetingWatch #LaconiaNH
