Voluntary Water Restriction

The Rollinsford Water and Sewer District (RWSD) is currently asking that District members voluntarily reduce outdoor water use as local drought conditions continue to worsen. At this time, the public is requested to refrain voluntarily from landscape watering and to limit the amount of water used outdoors for other purposes. We will continue to monitor our water levels and may issue mandatory restrictions if conditions continue to worsen and drought conditions persist. We thank you for your cooperation.

Town Hall Phased Opening

Open Today and Next Tuesday for Election Registration

The Select Board is working on a policy to protect the public and employees and allows more convenience to residents. For this first phase, the Town Hall will be open this afternoon from 3-7 and next Tuesday, August 18th from 3-7 for the Town Clerk window only. After that time the Select Board will evaluate potentially opening up the Town Clerk window for all Town Hall hours.

Masks must be worn by all and social distancing is required. Masks are available for those who need them. If you have a medical condition and are unable to wear a mask, we ask that you call ahead so we can make arrangements with you to meet your needs outside of the building.

We appreciate your patience as we work cautiously to open the offices in this phased approach. Stay tuned for further developments.
