Warner residents are demanding answers regarding the proposed DNCR bike trail, but the Select Board’s response remains vague. Here is what happened at the May 26 meeting. 🧵 #MeetingWatch #WarnerNH
A petition with ~200 signatures was presented to the Board opposing the trail due to concerns over land clearing. Residents reported receiving conflicting information from the DNCR about the project's status. 1/3
The Board’s current plan is to seek 'clarification' from the DNCR. However, with significant community opposition already documented, waiting for more info while the project moves forward is a major concern for neighbors. 2/3
Additionally, the Board is weighing a $47,041.05 cleaning bill for the Highway Garage following the fire. They haven't decided yet if Primex will cover it. We will be watching to see who ultimately pays. 3/3 https://meetingwatch.org/nh/warner/select-board/2026-05-26/
At the May 26 Select Board meeting, significant community concerns were brought to the floor, yet many remain unresolved. First, the issue of the proposed DNCR bike trail continues to cause friction. Despite a petition with approximately 200 signatures being presented by residents who oppose the project due to land-clearing concerns, the Board has not provided a definitive answer on the project's status. Residents expressed frustration over conflicting reports regarding whether the application was even approved for public comment. For now, the Board has simply agreed to seek 'clarification' from the DNCR. Second, the town is facing significant unresolved costs following the Highway Garage fire. A quote of $47,041.05 for pressure washing and deep cleaning has been presented, and the Board is currently debating whether Primex should be held responsible for these costs. Finally, the Board’s delay in addressing property boundary discrepancies is having real-world consequences. At least one resident reported that they are unable to sell their property because the Town's maps do not match historical records. The Board has deferred action until they can assess the Town's legal liability. We will continue to track these developments to ensure the Board prioritizes transparency and resident needs. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/warner/select-board/2026-05-26/ #MeetingWatch #WarnerNH
