Selectboard gets earful from angry nightclub owner

By Gail OBer

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

GILFORD — After getting a 60-day temporary entertainment license at his China Bistro last night, the restaurant/night club’s owner told selectmen he felt singled-out and targeted by a board that didn’t do its

research before denying him his permit two weeks ago.

Lin Bi, at times unable to speak through his anger and despite the quiet admonitions of his own lawyer, described himself as a small business man who had been operating a restaurant and nightclub in

Gilford for 30 years.

“We haven’t done anything wrong,” he said taking the podium during a video taped meeting. “This is America. I left China because officials do what they want.”

The application issue came to public attention when Bi

asked for a permit to hold a wet T-shirt contest during the upcoming Motorcycle Week and on May 12 selectmen denied his request for the special entertainment license.

During the same meeting, the board also denied his annual see GILFOrd page 8

ATLANTA (AP) — Judges on a federal appeals court panel on Wednesday repeatedly raised questions about President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul, expressing unease with the requirement that virtually all Americans carry health insurance or face penalties.

All three judges on the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals panel questioned whether upholding the landmark law could open the door to Congress adopting other sweeping economic mandates.

The Atlanta panel did not immediately rule on the lawsuit brought by 26 states, a coalition of small businesses and private individuals who urged the three to side with a federal judge in Florida who struck down the law.

But the pointed questions about the so-called individual mandate during almost three hours of oral arguments suggests the panel is considering whether see COURT page 12

Al Qaida’s #2 says Muslims will destroy U.S. & allies CAIRO (AP) — Osama bin Laden’s deputy warned Wednesday that America faces not individual terrorists or groups but an international community of Muslims that seek to destroy it and its allies. He was delivering a 28-minute videotaped eulogy to slain alQaida leader Osama bin Laden.

Ayman al-Zawahri, al-Qaida’s longtime No. 2 and considered the network’s operational head, also sought to cast a role for the terror group in the popular uprisings shaking Arab world.

“Today, praise God, America is not facing an individual, a group or a faction,” he said,

wearing a white robe and turban with an assault rifle leaned on a wall behind him.

“It is facing a nation than is in revolt, having risen from its lethargy to a renaissance of jihad.”

Al-Zawahri also heaped praise on bin Laden, who was killed in the May 2 raid

by U.S. Navy SEALs in the Pakistani garrison town of Abbottabad. Al-Zawahri, who is believed to be operating from somewhere near the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, also criticized the U.S. for burying bin Laden at sea.

“He went to his God as a martyr, the

man who terrified American while alive and terrifies it in death, so much so that they trembled at the idea of his having tomb” he said.

Al-Zawahri — who referenced the toppling of rulers in Tunisia and Egypt and continued uprisings in Libya, Yemen and Syria — tried to cast recent developments as in line with his group’s longtime goal: to destroy America and its allies. He said America now faces the international Muslim community.

SPRINGERVILLE, Ariz. (AP) — A raging forest fire in eastern Arizona that already forced thousands from their homes headed Wednesday for a pair of transmission lines that supply electricity to hundreds of thousands of people as far east as Texas.

The 607-square-mile blaze is expected to reach the power lines as early as Friday. If the lines are damaged, parts of New Mexico and Texas could face rolling blackouts.

Meanwhile, an Arizona sheriff ordered remaining residents of two towns in the

path of the wildfire to evacuate by Wednesday evening. About 7,000 people live in Springerville and Eagar and surrounding areas, although many already have left.

The blaze has blackened about 389,000 acres and destroyed 11 buildings, primarily in the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest. No serious injuries have been reported.

Firefighters have been concerned that high afternoon winds could carry embers that can cause new, smaller spot fires.

“We have a lot of people out there who are going to be doing nothing but looking for spots and putting those things out if they see them,” fire spokesman Jim Whittington said.

Firefighters had spent the past two days trying to create a line where they could defend the towns. They used bulldozers to scrape off vegetation and hand crews to remove other fuels. The line hasn’t been breached, but a spot fire did find an opensee FIRES page 11

Frankly Speaking / Rep. Frank Guinta

New jobs are still priority #1 If you’ve read this column recently, you know the wide array of things I’m fighting for in Washington: a responsible budget that cuts federal spending, a plan for providing Americans with affordable and sustainable energy sources, resistance to raising the government debt ceiling without deep, significant cuts in spending and major budgetary reforms, and continued support for our men and women in uniform.

Yet one problem hangs on with nasty persistence: the need for jobs. The Labor Department said the nation’s unemployment rate increased to 9.1-percent in May. But that’s only a statistic. If you have a spouse, friend or neighbor who’s having a tough time finding a job, you know the personal cost is very painful.

As bad as that 9.1-percent figure is, it doesn’t include the many others who are underemployed, or who have been out of work for so long, they’ve grown discouraged and have stopped looking for a job.

As your congressman, I’m personally committed to helping turn things around. I launched my ongoing “Getting Granite Staters Back to Work” initiative in April. Phase One started with visits to several small business owners and a survey of job creators to hear their thoughts and suggestions.

I’m taking what I’m hearing from them, and am applying it to what I’m doing in Washington.

Always remember: job creators are the solution, not the government. They repeatedly tell me they get too much government over-regulation and too much taxation, but not enough fiscal leadership from Washington. That’s robbing them of the confidence they need to grow and hire new employees.

Now it’s time for Phase Two. I’m pleased to announce that I am sponsoring two Job Fairs in New Hampshire this month. My goal is to bring together people who are looking for work with employers who are looking to hire quality workers. These fairs are free and open to everyone.

The first one will be held on Monday, June 20 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in Derry at the Marion Gerrish Community Center, 39 West Broadway.

The second will be held on Monday, June 27 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in Rochester at the Brady Sullivan Technical Park (ground floor), 35 Industrial Way. It’s important to remember that the battle to return our nation to prosperity is being waged on multiple fronts. My efforts here at home

to help unemployed people find work are only part of it.

The rest of the fight is being waged on Capitol Hill. Washington creates the economic environment in which job creators operate.

When our government keeps the nation’s finances on a sound fiscal footing, it gives them confidence to grow, expand and hire new employees. The opposite is also true: when Washington creates an atmosphere of unpredictability and uncertainty, job creators understandably turn cautious. That is where we find ourselves right now. In my recent “Getting Granite Staters Back to Work” survey of small business owners, nearly 60-percent said they have no plans to hire new employees this year or in the foreseeable future.

My Republican colleagues in the House and I are dedicated to turning things around. We started by passing a responsible budget that takes a big bite out of federal spending and lowers the deficit. When President Obama and Democratic congressional leaders asked for a “clean” bill to raise the debt ceiling by $2.4-trillion without any spending cuts or budgetary reforms, we emphatically said “No!” I’ve also cosponsored a bill to change the budgeting process to a two-year budget, so we can give job creators more predictability and confidence.

These battles, both here at home and in Washington, won’t be won overnight or decided in a single legislative vote. But victory is possible and we can win them. All we need is the determination to do what is right, and to stick with it for as long as it takes.

I look forward to reporting back to you in two weeks on the latest developments in Washington. In the meantime, if I can be of service to you, or if you want to share your thoughts, suggestions or concerns with me, please call either my district office in Manchester at (603) 641-9536 or my Washington office at (202) 225-5456, or contract me through my website and sign up for my weekly e-newsletter at www.Guinta.House.Gov. You can also follow what I’m doing 24/7 on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ repfrankguinta and on Twitter at @ RepFrankGuinta.

Until next time, please know that I am always on your side and am actively fighting for New Hampshire’s interests in Washington.

(Congressman Frank Guinta is a Manchester Republican who represents New Hampshire’s First District in Washington.)

LETTERS I don’t believe ‘we guys’ even have a vote on the abortion issue To the editor, In recent weeks, The Sun has published a number of letters regarding abortion. Some are “pro” and some are “con.” Recently, added to this debate has been the Parental Notification Law passed the Republican New Hampshire House and Senate.

It requires that except in very exceptional cases, parents must be notified when a minor child seeks an abortion.

Hopefully, Governor Lynch will do the right thing and veto this piece of antichoice legislation.

Some of us see this legislation for what it is. While its proponents see it as a matter of “parental rights,” it is actually a “back door” attempt to limit a woman’s right to make her own decisions regarding her reproductive life. Supporters of this bill say “well my daughter has to have my permission to have her ears pierced or to get an aspirin at school so isn’t this the same thing? Don’t I have the right, as a parent, to at least know if she is having an abortion?”

The “ear piercing” and “aspirin” arguments are like “comparing apples to oranges.” They are definitely not the same thing. After all, the issue involves SEX, toward which we as a nation have a rather schizophrenic attitude. We glorify it in our media and at the same time we have a puritanical attitude toward it.

When you are 14 or 15, you may be interested in sex and may want to

read about it and talk about it with your peers but the last people you may want to talk about it with is your parents. The Parental Notification Law, if passed, will mean that fewer girls will feel they have a choice because of the reaction of their parents. Many may even seek illegal, unsafe abortions. Will the parents of underage fathers also be notified under the proposed legislation?

I cannot help but notice that the greater majority of the writers to The Sun on this subject are male. So is the membership in our local governments, state legislatures, and Congress.

Sorry, but I am having a problem believing that “we guys” even have a “vote” on this issue. Perhaps if we can ever get pregnant and bear children we would. Maybe it would be fair if the only female legislators and citizens were able to vote on this. I think that studies show that the majority of American women (if not men) are “pro-choice” at least to some degree.

Even then, I have a real problem with something that the Supreme Court has declared a constitutional right being subject to a vote or even a popular referendum. If something is a RIGHT, then even the majority cannot take it away. James Madison, the Founding Father also called “The Father of the Constitution,” declared that a tyranny by a majority can be as bad as a tyranny by an autocrat.

You have to live on a short-cut ‘thru-way’ to appreciate the danger To the editor, This letter is in response to Mr. Roderick’s letter to the editor of June 7.

Mr. Roderick, you obviously don’t live on a road that “shortens the distance” between point A and point B as Cat Path and Potter Hill Road does, because if you did, you would not accuse selectmen of taking priority over the “narrow interests of a few abutters.”

I happen to live on Potter Hill and have been witness to many individuals speeding, driving recklessly and not to mention, individuals toking on a marijuana pipe as they steer the car with their knee, all the while exceeding the posted speed limit. I have witnessed and complained about students from GHS both in the morning and evening

speeding to get to or from school and using Potter Hill Road as a thru-way and making it their own personal race track. I have seen mom’s of elementary school age children speeding over Potter Hill Road to get their child to school on time. I have screamed, I have yelled and I have just about stood in the path of an oncoming speeding car to get them to slow down. It wasn’t until I had a handicapped child and realized that just taking her out for a walk in my beautiful neighborhood could be deadly.

My point is that unless you live on one of these “thru-ways”, you have no idea what it’s like to live with the constant barrage of people speeding through the neighborhood just to get see next page

LETTERS Oxymorons continue to abound in land of liberal progressives To the editor, Will someone please tell President Obama that reports of the country’s recession being over have been greatly exaggerated. The unemployment rate has jumped to 9.1-percent for the month of May, with only 54,000 jobs created and the March and April numbers were revised downward, as usual. We’re all still waiting with baited (CO2) breath for the “millions” of green jobs promised over two years ago and still posted on whitehouse. gov. The possibility of a double-dip recession looms on the horizon like a Tennessee tornado.

Our dear leaders loathing of free market economics is putting the country’s businesses and workers in a precarious position to say the least.

His intense hostility toward capitalism has been on display with the many roadblocks to oil drilling that have occurred in the past year. Jeffrey Folks gives us another example with his June 4th article in American Thinker — President Obama’s nomination of John Bryson as Commerce Secretary, a strong “cap and trade” proponent and founder of the radical Natural Resources Defense Counfrom preceding page somewhere quicker. If it ever comes up before the selectmen to dead end Potter Hill Road, you can bet that I will be first in line to support it.

cil. He is also CEO of the alternative energy firm Brightsource Energy.

That would be the company that has lost nearly two hundred million dollars despite receiving billions in taxpayer subsidies and loan guarantees.

As Jeffrey says, “Obama’s disdain for capitalism — that is to say, for the economic process that feeds, houses, clothes and educates every ordinary American citizen — is a reflection of his extraordinary political arrogance”.

The last and perhaps most exasperating example is President Obama filing a complaint against Boeing, a terrific company and phenomenal exporter. The following facts have been gleaned from a Jim Bohannon interview with Gary Shapiro, president and CEO of Consumer Electronics Association. (His website is ce.org.) Boeing’s plant in the state of Washington has been very successful and is open and thriving today having built the new “dreamliner” plane.

They decided to build a second plant in South Carolina to be (1) geographically diverse in case of a natural disaster and (2) to avoid union cost, as S.C. is a right to work state.

Boeing has spent three years and two billion dollars building a factory there. It was supposed to open next month and employ a thousand workers. Though both sites are legal and comply with the Taft Hartley Act, our beloved government is taking Boeing to court because they believe Boeing is retaliating against unions because

they held strikes at their Washington state plant which cost Boeing two billion dollars by making them less competitive in the marketplace. Ironically, Boeing did not close their Washington plant, nor did they build in Canada or overseas. Nope, they just had the audacity to build a plant right here in the good old U.S. of A. in a state where they could avoid a democratically backed union thugocracy.

This is yet another example of a liberal Democrat president who claims to be for the middle class and is once again taking private enterprise jobs away from citizens, forcing them to struggle economically, while offering nanny state entitlements. Oxymorons continue to abound in the land of liberal progressives, again choosing social justice mediocrity over capitalistic exceptionalism. Watching our own government wasting more taxpayer money, damaging a great company and keeping a thousand people out of work is

absolutely unconscionable.

As Gil Morales and Chris Kacher note in their June 4th column at Townhall.com, “the wrongheaded policies of the Obama administration will come home to roost. Socialism never works, yet politicians continue to practice it because it appeals to the masses and wins votes”. That statement includes many Republicans as well.

Finally, I quote Marc Abear, “How do we fix this mess? We stop spending money we don’t have. We repay what we have borrowed. We minimize government intervention in the market place. We increase individual freedom. We demand accountability of our politicians”.

What a novel concept. I strongly encourage you to read Marc’s letter in the June edition of The Sun. It is right on the money, filled with lots of facts and even my fiscally challenged mind was able to understand it all.

Russ Wiles Tilton

End of age of cheap oil may bring an end to Bike Week, too bad To the editor, A letter to our local paper last April 15 blamed the police for the decline of “Bike Week”. The price of gas may have something to do with it, too.

In this letter, the police were compared to “the Gestapo of Hitler’s Germany”, in contrast to the hardworking, “fun loving” people who make this event “a huge money maker”. How much net income, and who receives it, were not disclosed.

Hitler’s Germany is one of the

images that comes to my mind when “Bike Week” comes, not because of the police, but because of the intimidating presence of gangs of motorcycles, especially the un-muffled ones.

Beefed-up police force may not be necessary someday; the end of the Age of Cheap Oil may bring about the demise of Motorcycle Week. I wonder how many of us would miss it.

Pets lost to mobile home fire in Meredith A fire that gutted a mobile home at 20 True Road, lot 67 in Meredith yesterday afternoon killed several animals, including two dogs, a kitten and several birds. No humans were hurt by the fire. Meredith Fire Chief said two adults and one teenager, whom he wouldn’t identify, lived at the home. Neighbors said the structure was the home of Marie Bonbon and her family. Jones said a first alarm was called for the fire due to the difficulty of finding nearby water and to the 90 degree heat of the day. Shown here, Meredith firefighter Jason Haines takes a water break.

Forsythe will chair Ron Paul for President in N.H.

By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — Senator Jim Forsythe (R-Strafford) of District 4, consisting of Laconia along with six towns in Beknap County and two towns in Strafford County, has been named New Hampshire Campaign Chairman for Congressman Ron Paul’s presidential bid in 2012.

In 2008, Forsythe abandoned his own bid for the Republican nomination in the first congressional district to devote himself to Paul’s race in New Hampshire’s First-in-the-Nation Presidential Primary. He said that he first met the Texan in 2006 and the next year spoke in his support at a Tea Party rally at Fanueil Hall in Boston.

Forsythe said yesterday that he accepted the offer to chair Paul’s campaign after being assured that the candidate would spend the time in New Hampshire required to mount a competitive campaign.

“I’m satisfied that Dr. Paul will have a strong pres-

N OPE Y! NOW 0 DAIL :3 8-5

ence in the state,” he said, acknowledging that his determination not to miss votes in Congress kept him away from the hustings and weakened his campaign in 2008.

“I plan on doing some work,” Forsythe said. “I will be introducing him to voters around the state and speaking on his behalf.” He said that Paul stands out from the field of Republican candidates for his consistent commitment to fiscal discipline. “For 30 years, he has warned us about monetary policy, warned us about spending, warned us about inflation,” he said. “Now our people need jobs and dollars worth saving, and Dr. Paul can put us on the road to recovery.” He stressed that Paul “is one of the few conservatives to look at military spending in balancing the budget.”

Likewise, Forsythe shares Paul’s approach to monetary policy, which features eliminating the capital gains tax on gold and silver, to facilitate their return see FORSYTHE page 8

GILFORD — The School District used the AlertNow notification system to inform parents and guardians that the public meeting to discuss the future of the position of superintendent will be definitely held in the high school auditorium on Tuesday, June 21 at 7 p.m.

Typically, the AlertNow system is used for notifying parents of school closures and similar emergencies but Chair Kurt Webber said he thought the open discussion about the future of the school district management team was worthy of its use.

“Because of a recently submitted Citizens’ Petition, the Gilford School Board has decided to conduct a Special Public Hearing on June 21 to hear directly from the Petitioners as well as from all others who wish to weigh-in on this matter. The School Board strongly urges all interested citizens to attend this meeting, the results of which may well have a significant impact on the schools, their funding and, most especially, the students,” read the notice.

Proponents of managing the three-school system without the services of a superintendent have been clamoring for such a meeting since the board, according to some, chose to ignore the results of March ballot referendum that called for adhering to a management model crafted by a special committee prior to the town breaking away from an SAU affiliation with Laconia and Gilmanton in 1998. Under the 1998 plan, a business manager would be the School District’s CEO and educational leadership would be provided by the building principals.

Webber said hoped all people interested in the management of the Gilford School District attend the public hearing but said he had no physical means to notify people without children in the school system except through local media outlets and the legally required public postings.

He said he understands that taxpayers without children in the school system are huge stakeholders in the School District as well and that was the reason he and the other School Board members voted earlier this week to hold the public hearing.

The petitioners had specifically asked for a special School District meeting, however, according to school district lawyers a special town meeting is not legally required because the petition did not specify an action it wished to bring to a vote.

As a compromise, Webber, against the initial concerns of some of the other School Board members — Derek Tomlinson and Rae Mello-Andrews, who said the public hearing would be a “waste of time” — and successfully argued that the concern of the taxpayers must be addressed and a School District public hearing was the only format available to them.

GILFORD from page one application renewal for his live entertainment and dancing permit citing several noise complaints and a March 28 parking lot fight that resulted in law enforcement response that involved Gilford, Laconia and New Hampshire State Police as well as the enforcement unit of N.H. Department of Liquor Bureau.

Bi filed an appeal of the selectmen’s decision but came back the board on May 24, with attorney David Allen, to apply for a 60-day permit that would have allowed him to host live entertainment during the appeal period but, after verbally addressing the May 12 issues, was rejected and told by the board to come up with a tangible plan to address the noise complaints as well as alleged zoning and site plan violations.

So he did.

Bi’s written proposal, which was for the renewal of his annual permit, said the club would eliminate patio music, reduce overall sound vibration by 15-percent, reduce the parking lot noise by adding additional security staff outside as well as inside and strongly try to eliminate the same people from

coming and going into the parking lot and club.

About halfway through Allen’s presentation, Selectman Gus Benavides made a motion to allow Bi a 60-day temporary permit with “contingencies” or “warnings” that included telling Bi to “get your security under control.”

Both Selectman Kevin Hayes and Chair John O’Brien said they had visited the club, sat outside and down the street while the music was playing at full-blast, but didn’t feel that the noise complaints regarding music were legitimate.

When he again didn’t get his annual permit, Bi began his tirade.If all that was true, Bi replied, then “why shouldn’t I get a regular license?”

He told selectmen that he had lost a lot of business during the past two weeks because of the loss of his live entertainment permit and that the same woman had lodged a noise complaint with the Gilford Police last Saturday night when he had six people sitting in the bar watching television.

He went on to say that the same person, who lives across Lake Street — in Laconia — was responsi-

ble for nearly all of the noise complaints and Town Administrator Scott Dunn said his investigation supported Bi’s charge.

When Bi asked them if the Board had ever denied a year-long permit to any other business in Gilford because of a noise complaint, Hayes told him to abide by the conditions of his temporary permit.

Allen said Bi would take the conditional approval but said Bi would appeal the board’s denial of his annual renewal.

“We stand by everything in the plan,” Allen said, noting Bi has suffered a lot already through the negative publicity and that all permits are temporary in that they are renewable on an annual basis.

He said there would be no objection if the annual permit was subject to the same conditions as the temporary one but Selectmen were unmoved.

Minds made up, Benevides said he would stand by his motion for the 60-day permit and Hayes seconded it.

The proposal, obtained through Allen after the meeting, was not included in the packet of information typically provided members of the press before a meeting nor was there any public discussion by selectmen of what the proposal actually said.

Additionally, the selectman’s agenda contained no posting of a non-public meeting for Wednesday night, although they jointly entered the room from a single door that leads from the meeting room typically used to hold posted non-public meetings. The regular meeting agenda included the China Bistro under old business.

Forsythe said that Paul was starting from a much stronger position this time around with the support of 19 members of the New Hampshire House of Representatives, compared to just one in 2008. “The polls show that Dr. Paul is statistically tied for second place,” he said, expecting that the field would close on Mitt Romney, the frontrunner, as the campaign progressed.

Despite his declared support for Paul, Forsythe said that as senator he will host all candidates , who visit the district during the primary. “I will be an ambassador,” he remarked.

— Winnisquam Regional High School —

The Top 10 graduating seniors for 2011

DIRTY AIR DUCTS ARE A HEALTH HAZZARD

BY ADAM DRAPCHO THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

TILTON — Of the 127 members of Winnisquam Regional High School’s 2011 graduating class, about half will immediately pursue a two- or four-year degree program. The top 10 graduating seniors will pursue careers ranging from prosecutor to music teacher. One thing they all have in common, though, is they’re not flying too far from the nest. All 10 are attending schools within a day’s drive of home.

Audriana Mekula of Northfield will travel the farthest of the bunch when she matriculates to Wagner College on Staten Island, N.Y. There, she’ll study English and criminal justice, with the intention of going on to law school and ultimately becoming an assistant district attorney, prosecuting cases in either Boston on New York City. “I love the city,” she said. Mekula said she’s had people close to her fall victim to crime and she wants her work to salve such injuries. “I want people to know if they come into my office with the crime that has been committed, then justice will be served.”

Ian Sleeper of Tilton will study civil engineering at the University of New Hampshire next school year. He had been interested in music but decided, after helping his family build a deck at home, that engineering would be a good way for him to employ his abilities in math and his penchant for creativity. “It was really an application of things I love and things I’m good at,” he said.

Joining Sleeper as a Wildcat-to-be is Greta DeVolder, who will study occupational therapy at the UNH. “Before my grandfather passed away, he had an occupational therapist that was always around him – she inspired me to be an occupational therapist, she was always there for my grandfather,” said DeVolder. She wants to work with patients, especially those struggling with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, to help them improve their quality of life. “It seems like an interesting thing. It’s helping people get back on their feet.”

Also interested in therapy is Matt Roy of Northfield. Roy will matriculate to Franklin Pierce University in Ringe, N.H. to study physical therapy. “My dad does it, it seems pretty interesting,” he said. Roy, who played football and baseball at Winnisquam, said he hopes his career as a therapist will allow him to remain a New Hampshire resident. “All my family is here, I don’t want to go so far from my family.”

Seneca Lawrence of Tilton will follow her passion for dance to the Purchase College of the State University of New York. “I’ve been doing ballet since I was four, it’s been the only thing I love, the only thing that makes me happy,” she said. Lawrence has already begun to aggressively pursue dance, driving to Newton, Mass. to dance with the Boston Ballet School. She would be happy to join that dance school after graduating, or would follow other opportunities, be they in New York City or on the West Coast. see next page

COLONIAL from page one Music Festival; Alex Ray, owner of the Common Man Family of Restaurants; Bob Selig, president of the board of trustees of Laconia Public Library; Mike Toomey, senior vice-president of Franklin Savings Bank; and a representative of of Meredith Village Savings Bank. Dyer is serving as chairman.

In April 2010, the city, with a $15,000 donation from a benefactor whose name has not been made public, secured an 18-month option to acquire the theater complex, including the auditorium, apartments and storefronts, from the Lawrence and Pat Baldi family for $1,470,000. Last month the option, which would otherwise have expired in October, was extended for six months and now will run a full two years, until April 2012.

The status of the committee is somewhat ambiguous. When it was convened in March Cabanel said that, since it was established by the city, which holds the option to purchase the theater, and will report to City Council, its meetings would be open to the public. Moreover, the committee regularly posts the required legal notices of its meetings.

However, when the committee first met several members were uncomfortable with the idea of the press being allowed in the room, suggesting that they would be reluctant to speak candidly if their remarks were reported. The committee is now in the process of forming itself into a non-profit corporation, which would exempt it from RSA 91-A, the state’s Right-to-Know law.

When the city first secured the option to acquire the property, it was envisioned that the theater would be owned and operated by a non-profit corporation, not the city, which would be authorized to solicit and accept contributions qualifying for federal tax deductions.

Carmen Lorentz, executive director of the Belknap County Economic Development Council who has been assisting the committee, said it has been meeting twice each month.

This spring the city requested proposals from private firms to prepare a design and operating plan for the theater complex. The committee began reviewing the five submissions when it met yesterday.

Last year, Duncan Webb of Webb Management Services, Inc. of New York City presented a feasibility study for the project, which concluded the the-

ater could be reopened for multiple uses in stages, but offered no financial plan for funding its operations. Lorentz said that the firm that is awarded the contract will provide a plan for renovating and operating the theater, which will include cost estimates and financial projections. She said that the committee expects to have the plan in hand by the end of September.

Meanwhile, the committee has applied for $500,000 worth of tax credits administered by the New Hampshire Community Development Finance Authority (CDFA), which would be used to defray the acquisition costs. The city would sell, for example, $100,000 worth of tax credits to a local business, which in turn would reduce its state business tax liability by $75,000, in effect trading a $75,000 tax credit for a $25,000 donation.

Likewise, the committee is in the process of applying the New Hampshire Land and Community Heritage Program (LCHIP) for funding toward the cost of purchasing and renovating the building.

Elderly Holderness man dies while swimming in Squam Lake cove

HOLDERNESS — An unidentified 86-year-old man has died while swimming alone in the shallow water of Squam Lake in front of his home on Grapevine Cove Road.

N.H. Marine Patrol said the unresponsive man was found in the water by his wife who called emergency responders who later pronounced him dead.

His name is being withheld pending notification of his family.

Assisting the Marine Patrol were personnel from Holderness Police and Fire and Plymouth Fire Departments. from preceding page “We’ll just see where the road takes me,” she said.

Abbie Roy of Sanbornton has found herself to be uniquely capable of helping confidants with their problems. “I’m trustworthy, I listen, I give good feedback,” she said. To build on that strength, she’ll be studying psychology at Plymouth State University and may someday be a social worker. She said she wants to help people through difficult times in their lives. “It makes me feel good to see them come out of it in a good way.”

Music is the muse which whispers to Robert Laraway, who will attend the University of Maine in Orono, where he will study to become a music teacher. Laraway plays guitar and piano but his main instrument is his voice, which he has employed as a member of the Winnisquam Chamber Choir.

Laraway plans to start his music teaching career in high schools and hopes to eventually become a college professor. He noted that students who are well-versed in music tend to perform better in other subject areas. “I want to impart the passion I have in the subject to other people.”

Alyson Atherton of Northfield is unsure of what she’ll study but knew once she visited the campus of the University of Vermont that she wanted to enroll there. “I got to Burlington, I had never been there before, I absolutely loved it,” she said. Atherton said she has yet to find a “passion” for an academic subject and said her goal is “to find something I can tolerate enough to do it for the rest of my life.”

Julia Kehr will also be in Burlington come fall, though she will be at Champlain College studying communications. “For the longest time I thought I wanted to be an elementary teacher,” Kehr said, then she took a psychology course and was inspired to broaden her scope of career possibilities. She wants to “do something that affects people in some capacity,” and said there are several happy memories she’ll carry with her from Winnisquam Regional High School. “I really, truly enjoyed being a part of the music department and drama department,” she said.

Selectmen learn that only voters can close Cat Path; speed limit reduced

By Gail OBer

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

GILFORD — After a standing-room only public hearing, selectmen last night voted unanimously to reduce the speed limit on Cat Path to 25 mph and limit the weight load to six tons with the exception of service and emergency vehicles and school buses.

Even though it was part of the residents’ petition, selectmen said state law prevents them from closing one end of the road or making it one-way.

“Selectmen cannot discontinue or close a road,” said Chair John O’Brien. “It must go to Town Meeting.”

While most in the room agreed with lowering the speed limit and restricting the weight on the narrow road that connects Route 11-A or Cherry Valley Road to Route 11-B or Intervale Road, many spoke against closing one end of it.

O’Brien said Cat Path was initially set up as a rural dirt road that largely provided access to a couple of private residences. Over time, more people built on in, the town paved it to reduce the dust, and people, who in the 1960s and 1970s would never FIRES from page 2 ing, Whittington said.

“It’s not like the fire is in Springerville and Eagar,” he said. “It’s that potential for it to hook around the dozer line and (the) burnout we did and (then) move northeast into town” that prompted the evacuation.

By late Wednesday afternoon, the streets of Springerville were mostly empty. Apache County sheriff’s deputies and other law enforcement officers could be seen going house-to-house as they looked for any remaining residents. Authorities were marking homes with yellow caution tape to signify that residents had left.

At Reed’s Lodge along Springerville’s Main Street, Daric Knight said he planned to stay to make sure no embers fell on the wood shingle roof or elsewhere on the property. Knight said his family has owned the lodge since the 1960s.

“I’ve seen lots of fires, but nothing like this,” he said.

The fire prompted Texas-based El Paso Electric to issue warnings of possible power interruptions for its customers in southern New Mexico and West Texas.

The company uses two high voltage lines to bring electricity from the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station west of Phoenix to the two states.

Winds in the area were expected to gust up to 35 mph on Wednesday. Officials in Catron County, N.M., told residents of Luna to be prepared to leave if winds push the blaze into western New Mexico.

dream of driving up or down Cat Path for fear of getting stuck or worse, began using it as a shortcut.

With the advent of global positioning sensors — or GPS — the road, in places only 17-feet wide, became listed as the “shortest way” to get from the Weirs Beach section of Laconia to Gunstock Mountain Resort.David “Skip” Murphy, who advocated for making it a private road, said he was shocked to learn that the average number of cars that travel Cat Path daily tops 1,100.

“I have children,” said resident Corey Lufbad who said the issue of safety was one that was “very emotional to him.”

He was responding to a Gunstock Acres resident who said that closing the road would add a minimum of 1.6 miles daily to his commute and that would total nearly 1,000 miles annually.

“Okay,” said Lufbad. “We’ve lost cats, dogs, mail boxes and trees but when one of my children or me gets killed, we’re going to look pretty silly arguing about this.”

“This is not 1965, 1985 or even 2005 for that

matter,” said Lufbad. “Why is it so important to save 53 seconds.”

Lufbad also said he would be against the town’s taxpayers spending “hundreds of thousands of dollars” to rebuild the road when the only solution was to somehow restrict its use.

Deputy Police Chief Kevin Keenan presented police reports that date to 2006 that identified 12 accidents on Cat Path alone — not the intersections — as well as 10 complaints involving motor vehicles from topics as wide-ranging as speeding to people hitting mailboxes and trees and not stopping to take responsibility.

Selectmen also agreed to ask Public Works Director Sheldon Morgan to immediately look into improving visibility by reducing some of the foliage and to look into what signs would be appropriate.

They also said they would review posting the road as “local traffic only” although, according to Keenan, it would not be easy to enforce but may serve as a deterrent to out-of-towners using it as a direct route.

MUSLIMS from page 2 in all places, I tell you that our hands are extended to you and our hearts are open to you, so that we can work together to make Allah’s word the highest and to make Islamic law in Muslim lands the ruler, not the ruled,” he said in a video released on militant websites.

Al-Qaida has long sought to topple many of the Arab leaders whose regimes have been shaken or toppled by popular uprisings this year, though militant Islam has played next to no role in any of them and most activists say they seek civil, not religious rule.

Within days of the bin Laden raid, al-Qaida had issued a statement vowing to keep fighting the United States, a message that was likely designed to convince followers that the organization would remain vigorous

and intact even after its founder’s demise.

But al-Zawahri’s eulogy was the first comment by one of his potential successors on bin Laden’s killing.

He also said U.S. officials withheld the release of photographs of bin Laden’s body, fearing the “Islamic peoples’ anger and hate” for America. He claimed bin Laden “achieved what he wanted to do, which is to incite the Islamic nation to holy war, and his message had reached all.”

Al-Zawahri, who is Egyptian, is a less charismatic figure believed to lack bin Laden’s ability to bring together the many nationalities and ethnic groups that make up al-Qaida. His appointment as the next al-Qaida leader could further fracture an organization that is thought to be increasingly decentralized.

N.H. House & Senate pass law requiring photo identification for voters CONCORD (AP) — Voters would have to show photo identification to vote in New Hampshire under legislation passed by the House and Senate.

It now heads to the governor but the bill’s future there looks uncertain.

The version approved 14-9 by the Senate on Wednesday allows for provisional ballots for those who do not have official identification, allowing them to vote if they come back to municipal officials within three days with a government-issued photo identification.

Voters also could get a waiver from the photo identification requirement from the Secretary of State or request and receive a voucher to cover the cost of getting photo identification from the state Department of Motor Vehicles.

Kingston Sen. Russell Prescott said he believed in voter identification. “It takes care of voter integrity,” he said.

But he voted against the legislation because of the provisional ballot plan.

“We’ll be sending people away from the polls and telling them they have to come back,” he said, arguing the Senate should push for a version without a provisional ballot measure.

Others objected to requiring photo

identification and creating additional steps for people without identification to get their vote counted.

“These are significant impediments to our most fundamental right,” said Concord Sen. Sylvia Larsen. “There are people who might be in wheelchairs, who might be elderly.”

The requirements to travel from one office to another to get vouchers or photo identification within three days would effectively disenfranchise legal voters, she said.

Sen. Jack Barnes of Raymond argued no one would be denied the right to vote under this legislation.

Larsen agreed. “I don’t believe they’ll be denied. They’ll be deterred,” she said.

A spokesman for Gov. John Lynch said after the vote that the governor had concerns about the bill.

“New Hampshire has a long, proud history of clean elections. The governor does not believe we should be putting up roadblocks at the voting booth.

He believes every vote must count and that’s why he’ll be reviewing this bill very carefully,” said Colin Manning.

With a 14-9 vote, the Senate does not have the votes to override a gov-

ernor’s veto.

If made into law, opponents said the legislation is likely to face a legal challenge over its constitutionality. They argued the legislation was trying to COURT from page one rule against at least part of the federal law to expand health coverage to tens of millions of Americans.

Federal appeals courts in Cincinnati and Richmond have heard similar legal constitutional challenges to the law within the last month, and lawyers on both sides agree the case is headed for the U.S. Supreme Court.

At issue Wednesday was a ruling

by U.S. District Judge Roger Vinson of Florida to invalidate the entire law, from the Medicare expansion to a change that allows adult children up to age 26 to remain on their parents’ insurance. The government contends that the law falls within its powers to regulate interstate commerce.

Chief Judge Joel Dubina, who was tapped by Republican President George H.W. Bush, struck early by asking the government’s attorney “if we uphold the individual mandate in this case, are there any limits on Congressional power?” Circuit Judges Frank Hull and Stanley Marcus, who were tapped

by Democratic President Bill Clinton, echoed his concerns later in the hearing.

Acting U.S. Solicitor Neal Katyal

solve a voter fraud problem that does not exist in New Hampshire.

“I’ve seen no evidence; I’ve heard no evidence to that effect,” said Sen. Amanda Merrill of Durham. sought to ease their concerns by saying the legislative branch can only exercise its powers to regulate commerce if it will have a substantial effect on the economy and solve a national, not local, problem.

Health care coverage, he said, is unique because of the billions of dollars shifted in the economy when Americans without coverage seek medical care.

“That’s what stops the slippery slope,” he said.

Paul Clement, a former U.S. solicitor representing the states, countered that the federal government should not have the power to compel residents to buy to engage in commercial transactions. “This is the case that crosses the line,” he said.

Hull also seemed skeptical about the government’s claim that the mandate was crucial to covering most of the 50 million or so uninsured Americans.

She said the rolls of the uninsured could be pared significantly through other parts of the package, including expanded Medicare discounts for some seniors and a change that makes it easier for those with pre-existing medical conditions to get coverage.

Dubina nodded as she spoke.

Bruins even with Canucks after 4-0 rout BOSTON (AP) — Just three days after the Bruins staggered back to Boston, they’ve barged right back into the Stanley Cup finals with two brilliant blowout wins.

Tim Thomas made 38 saves in his third shutout of the playoffs, Rich Peverley scored two goals after replacing injured Nathan Horton on Boston’s top line, and the Bruins emphatically evened the finals at two games apiece with a 4-0 victory over the foundering Vancouver Canucks in Game 4 on Wednesday night.

Michael Ryder and Brad Marchand also had goals for the Bruins, who chased Roberto Luongo early in the third period after Vancouver’s star goalie allowed his 12th goal in less than two brutal games in Boston.

“It’s always easier to be at home,” Marchand said.

“We feed off the energy, off our fans. They just bring out the best in us. ... Just seems everyone is so focused right now.”

The finals are now a best-of-three, with Game 5 in Vancouver on Friday night.

Game 6 is Monday night back in Boston. After outscoring Vancouver 12-1 in the last two games, the Bruins are halfway to their first NHL title since 1972 — but they’ll have to win at least once on the West Coast.

The Bruins rolled through Game 4 on an emotional high that began with a stirring pregame tribute to Horton, who will miss the rest of the series after incurring a serious concussion early in Game 3 on a late hit from Vancouver defenseman Aaron

Rome, who was suspended for four games.

Horton thrilled his teammates by showing up in the locker room after the game. He awarded the Bruins’ jacket — a tattered, kitschy team jacket that’s been passed among the Bruins in recent months to the key player in every victory — to Peverley.

“When I personally got to see him in the locker room, I was incredibly happy,” Thomas said. “It gave me a big boost. He was there to pass the jacket on. The team would have been happy leaving it with Horty for the rest of the series, but he wanted to give it away and keep the tradition going. ... Watching him going down, we want to finish what we started for him.”

Thomas was outstanding yet again. He has allowed just five goals in four games in his first Stanley Cup finals, with Vancouver’s vaunted Sedin twins — the NHL’s last two scoring champions — failing to beat him.

Despite the NHL’s warning to these teams about keeping their competition between the whistles, the third period featured another handful of skirmishes.

Thomas delighted Boston’s fans when he slashed Vancouver agitator Alex Burrows with 1:51 to play, precipitating another brawl.

Before the game, Bobby Orr — the Hall of Fame defenseman and Boston icon — wore his own No. 4 jersey as he waved a flag bearing Horton’s No. 18, drawing thunderous cheers while standing in the lower bowl under a spotlight. Hundreds of Canucks fans in blue jerseys joined in the cheers for Horton, who scored the winning goals in both of Boston’s Game 7 victories during these playoffs.

NEW YORK (AP) — David Ortiz hit one of three Boston homers to back a tireless Tim Wakefield and the Red Sox extended their domination of the Yankees this season, beating New York 11-6 on Wednesday night to take over first place in the AL East.

Carl Crawford and J.D. Drew also connected, both in the ninth inning to break the game open for a second time. Jacoby Ellsbury had three hits and Adrian Gonzalez added two RBIs. Facing his most familiar foe in Wakefield, Derek Jeter finished 1 for 5 to move within 11 hits of 3,000.

He had a run-scoring double but also grounded into a rally-killing double play.

Alex Rodriguez homered but A.J. Burnett came up small in a big game for the banged-up Yankees, who have lost seven of eight meetings with their longtime rivals this season — including all five at home.

The last time the Red Sox won their first five road games against the Yankees in a season was 1912, on the way to a World Series title.

Boston goes for its second sweep at Yankee Stadium in a month Thursday night when Red Sox right-hander Josh Beckett faces fellow ace CC

Sabathia in their latest marquee matchup. Beckett has beaten Sabathia and the Yankees twice in two spotless starts this season, striking out 19 over 14 shutout innings.

The Red Sox have won five straight overall after losing four in a row. Boston has won 18 of 24, starting the surge with a three-game sweep in the Bronx from May 13-15.

Wakefield (3-1) was relieved in the sixth by exYankee Alfredo Aceves, who went the rest of the way for his first save of the season.

Jeter was 1 for 3 against Wakefield, giving him 32 career hits against the 44-year-old knuckleballer, his most against any pitcher. The two have squared off in 118 plate appearances, the most common matchup among active players in majors.

Fill-in catcher Francisco Cervelli had three hits and two RBIs for the Yankees.

Making his first start at the new Yankee Stadium on a 90-degree night, Wakefield was handed a 7-0 lead by the fourth. He floated 66 mph knuckleballs toward the plate and held New York in check long enough to earn his 196th career win.

Red Sox still own New York, 11-6 this time

Pooch Café LOLA

By Holiday Mathis becomes clear that someone likes you to a greater extent than you previously thought. You’ll wonder whether you can return this level of affection, but the truth is that you don’t have to right now.

Enjoy the perks.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

You are too old to believe in monsters under the bed, and yet there are still doors you do not dare open. Now you’ll open one of them and encounter a joyful spirit on the other side.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

There are benefits to thinking about a past relationship and analyzing it as objectively as possible. Understanding why you made the choices that led you here, you’ll have tremendous respect and compassion for yourself.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Your suspicions are confirmed: You are indeed someone’s favorite person.

You’ll get more evidence to support this conclusion today. Formal thanks may be in order.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’re a risk taker. Sometimes you’re willing to lose what you have, but you’re never willing to gamble what other people have. You know your boundaries, and others admire you for staying inside them.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 9). A bright mood colors your year. You’ll attract fans and followers who share your unorthodox ideas. Traveling and cultural pursuits will be lucky for you in August, bringing you together with social and professional opportunities.

In September, you’ll develop a passionate new interest. You’ll increase your income in November. Scorpio and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 24, 4, 1 and 49.

by Richard Thompson

ARIES (March 21-April 19). There is no “bored,” there is only “boring” -something you never want to be. That’s the reason you broaden your interests now, investigating a wide array of new amusements and different topics.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If you can’t laugh at yourself, life is a sad, gray existence. Trying too hard to be smart, appropriate and correct can be a waste of life. Mess up and laugh -- it’s liberating.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re not glued to one particular mode of being. It’s your willingness to change that keeps you fresh and alive. People will have to run to keep up with you, and you won’t mind that one bit.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You are too intelligent to be sure about anything today. An event will cause you to review what you know -- or what you thought you knew, because on closer inspection, not all of it will hold up.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Life will become unpredictable, and you’ll like it that way. You can take it as a sign that you have expanded your consciousness and no longer have to be in familiar settings to feel safe.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You have an extra dose of courage at your disposal now, and you’ll use it to meet new people, make a statement in front of a group or walk through a door that was closed to you before.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Sometimes you push yourself into a situation to get a sense of whether or not it will be good for you. But there are those times, like now, when it’s best to keep out of it and just do what you know is the right thing.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: I retired from the Navy after 30 years of service. Many of those years were spent at sea, so I was looking forward to spending some stress-free time with my wife. It hasn’t happened.

Here’s the problem: We have owned our house for 30 years, but two years ago, new neighbors moved in. The one next door has a voice so loud, we can no longer enjoy our backyard. Her laugh is a deafening cackle. I put up a privacy fence, to no avail. It has only made her louder. Her husband, too.

The new neighbors across the street live their lives on the front porch, including changing the newborn’s dirty diapers in front of everyone. Shouldn’t this be done in the privacy of their home or backyard? What should I do? -- Gonzo Dear Gonzo: First try the direct, friendly approach. Talk to your next-door neighbors. Invite them over for coffee. Get to know them. Then ask if they can please keep the noise level down. Visit your neighbor across the street, and suggest they change the baby’s diapers inside the house so as not to gross out passersby.

Also, check into the possibility of a local neighborhood or homeowners association that helps mediate disputes. Beyond that, there are limits to what you can do without creating additional problems. Try to ignore the neighbor with the diapers, and consider fans or other white noise devices when you are using your yard.

Dear Annie: My husband is an outgoing guy and is easy to talk to. He’s handsome, funny and loves to be sociable.

My problem is, women adore him, and I find myself forced to watch them flirt with him. One of my girlfriends got rather tipsy and whispered something suggestive in his ear. When I asked what that was about, my husband claimed he “didn’t remember.” Another friend rubbed her hands up and down

his back while saying hello. She’s not that friendly with anyone else.

There have been other incidents, too. I am so sick of putting up with this. I trust my husband, and he knows how I feel.

Please give me some advice before another woman puts her paws on my man. -- Not Handling this Well Dear Not Handling: Honey, you married an attractive man who enjoys the attentions of other women. While some women are terribly aggressive, the truth is, men can put the kibosh on most of this flirting if they make the effort. You say you trust your husband, but it obviously isn’t enough to make you feel secure. Ask him to stop tacitly encouraging this flirting because it is disrespectful to your marriage. He can be friendly and still dial down the charm a few notches.

Dear Annie: If “Dutiful Daughter” had written: “My mother is in her late 60s and is becoming increasingly difficult,” you would have responded by asking what in Mom’s life was making her so unhappy. Instead, because the daughter said her mother was in her late 80s, you suggest this could be early dementia and that she needs an evaluation.

Even people with cognitive impairments can be made unhappy by circumstances in their lives. And the current state of medical “evaluation” mainly adds to the stigma without helping mother or daughter. -- Margaret M. Gullette, Ph.D., Resident Scholar, Women’s Studies Research Center, Brandeis University Dear Margaret Gullette: We appreciate that some folks, regardless of age, can be unhappy, and that there may be very specific reasons why. But it would be terribly irresponsible of us to ignore the possibility that a person in her late 80s may have age-related issues, including some mild dementia. Like it or not, age is often a factor in physical as well as mental changes.

SANDWICH — Enrollment is now open for Sandwich Children’s Center’s Summer @ the Center summer camp.

The sprinklers have been readied for water fun, the art shelves are laden with supplies, the butterfly garden is progressing, and partnerships are in place for tennis lessons, canoeing, and art collaboration with Sandwich Home Industries.

With a special focus on nature and outdoor fun, Summer @ the Center will offer “Nature Explorers” for children ages 3 — 5 and “Roaming Rangers” for children ages 6 — 12. All kids will experience an

age-appropriate, fun-filled summer through adventure, creativity, gardening, harvesting, hiking, and art, all based in our wonderful local community.

The program runs Monday — Friday from 7:15 a.m. — 5:30 p.m. and is individually tailored to meet each child’s schedule. Drop-off and pick-up times vary according to family needs. Children are welcome to come for as many days per week as they like; for one week or all ten.

For more information, visit www.sandwichchildrenscenter.org or call Karyn Ames, director, at 2847014.

LACONIA — The Got Lunch! program will present a Father’s Day double-header at the Congregational Church beginning with an 11 a.m. breakfast extravaganza on Sunday, June 19.

The menu will include quiches, casseroles, eggs with breakfast meats, pancakes with syrup, pastries, fruit, juice, and coffee.

Later, the Laconia Muskrat baseball team will salute Got Lunch! by donating $1 for every $5 ticket sold for that evening’s game played at Robbie Mills

Field. First pitch is at 6:05 p.m.

Got Lunch! is a Better Together community program formed to feed children who go hungry during the summer months when the free or reduced price breakfasts and lunches provided by their schools are not available. The group’s aim is to ensure that no Laconia children go to bed hungry this summer.

The entire community is invited to both events and donations will be gratefully accepted.

CONCORD — The Business and Industry Association (BIA) will host a policy development roundtable with business and opinion leaders in the Lakes Region at the Taylor Community Woodside Building from 9 — 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, June 21.

In partnership with the Lakes Region Chamber of Commerce, Lakes Region Association, the New Hampshire High Technology Council, and New Hampshire Business Review, the roundtable is an open forum for business leaders to talk about their top challenges and concerns and help shape the BIA’s legislative and regulatory agenda for the upcoming year.

BIA partners with local and regional chambers of commerce and business associations throughout New Hampshire to host and publicize the events in different regions to ensure a diverse representation of busi-

ness interests. The Lakes Region roundtable is one of 10 planned. The session will begin with an overview of the BIA’s current business agenda and results from the legislative session followed by a discussion and ranking of top business issues for the coming year.

The BIA will once again summarize the discussions and recommendations from each roundtable and make them available to roundtable partners and all participants. The BIA will also compile roundtable results into a business issues survey for distribution to BIA members statewide. The BIA’s five policy committees and board of directors will then use the survey results to develop a proactive legislative and regulatory agenda for 2012.

Attendance at the Lakes Region Business Roundtable is free of charge, but registration is encouraged. Call 224-5388 or visit www.nhbia.org.
