Summary of the New London Board of Selectmen Meeting - April 23, 2026 Two key issues from this week's meeting require resident awareness. First, the Town Administrator reported that developers involved in the Secret Cove project on Davis Hill Road have declined invitations to meet with town officials. This lack of engagement makes it difficult for the town to ensure the project aligns with community needs and regulations. Second, the proposal for a new pocket park at 328 Main Street continues to face scrutiny. While the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee is pushing for more walkable spaces, residents have voiced significant concerns regarding the loss of downtown municipal parking and the impact on stormwater management. In response, the Board has directed the committee to revise their designs to specifically address these issues before further progress is made. Additionally, the Energy Committee noted that current municipal solar expansion proposals are exceeding their budgets. They are currently awaiting more cost-effective bids to ensure fiscal responsibility. We will continue to track these developments to ensure transparency and accountability in New London. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/new-london/select-board/2026-04-23/ #MeetingWatch #NewLondonNH
