Saturday March 18, 2017: WINDHAM VOTED *YES*
ON ARTICLES 23 & 24! :)
ARTICLE
23: To
see if the town will authorize the Board of Selectmen to accept
a perpetual easement deed on tax map 25-C, Lot 250, known
now as Moeckel Dam, as well as an access easement over the
Town of Pelham's Bay Leaf Road that will secure recreational
access in perpetuity to Moeckel Pond for the public with provisions
acceptable to the Board of Selectmen; and to further raise
and appropriate the sum of one dollar ($1) for this purpose.
Note: The Friends of Moeckel Pond, who have been working to
reconstruct Moeckel Pond Dam, desire to apply for a 50% grant
from the State's Land and Water Conservation Fund, however
they do not meet the eligibility requirements, and have asked
the town to partner with them as a grant applicant. The purpose
of this article is to provide the town with the needed "legal"
ownership of the Dam required to be an applicant. The actual
authorization to apply for the grant is covered by another
article within this year's warrant.
ARTICLE 24: To see the town will vote to raise and appropriate,
through grants and donations, the sum of $300,000 for the
purpose of reconstructing the Moeckel Pond Dam, including
the cost of engineering, permitting, construction and any
other ancillary costs associated with this purpose, and further
to authorize the acceptance of $150,000 of this appropriation
from the State of New Hampshire as part of the Land and Water
Conservation Fund, and the acceptance of the balance of $150,000
from a donation by the Friends of Moeckel Pond. Should this
article be approved but the Town either not receive the State
grant or the donation from the Friends, this article will
be considered null and void. This will be a nonlapsing appropriation
per RSA 32:7, VI and will not lapse until the project is complete
or for a period of four (4) years, whichever is less. This
article will have no impact on the tax rate.
Note: This article would appropriate the funds needed to reconstruct
the Moeckel Pond Dam as well as to accept a donation of $150,000,
or the 50% grant match, from the Friends of Moeckel Pond.
While the Town would be responsible for the project and the
grant administration, the Friends would assist in all aspects
of both. Should either the grant or the donation not occur,
this article would be deemed null and void.

Monday January 9, 2017: Dam Renamed in Honor of Benefactors:
At the town's Selectmen's meeting, it was announced that the
future Moeckel Pond dam will be named the Marston-Finn Dam
in honor of Dr. James Finn and his wife Dr. Elizabeth Marston.
The Finn-Marston family generously donated $100,000 to the
dam, in addition to donating $20,000 last year.
