CHESTERFIELD, N.H. â In another week or so there wonât be much left of the Old Spofford Hall other than the gazebo on the site and the institutional leach field on the other side of Route 9A.
Jim Phippard, of Brickstone Land Use Consultants in Keene, said once everything is removed from the site a 500-foot driveway with a cul de sac will be laid down and five lots on a total of six acres will go up for sale to prospective home builders.
âWeâve salvaged everything we could out of the building,â he said. âWiring, plumbing, metal . it all got salvaged and recycled.â
Businesses circulate petition resisting Dalton landfill
January 13, 2021LITTLETON More than 40 Littleton business owners signed a petition urging the Select Board to oppose the development of a proposed landfill in Dalton. The petitioners argue that local businesses rely heavily on the tourism draw of the Ammonoosuc River.
The proposed landfill on Douglas Drive lies in close proximity to Forest Lake and is upriver from the downtown Littleton area. While the bulk of the land parcel rests within Dalton town limits, a portion of the acreage is within both Littleton and Bethlehem town lines as well.
Voters can expect to see the non-binding petition on the March 9 ballot. It calls for the Select Board to resist any application approvals distributed by the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services for the development.
