Water District Commissioner Opening

The Rollinsford Water & Sewer District (RWSD) is looking for a committed person in the District willing to be appointed a Commissioner. A person wishing to be appointed must both live in the District and be a registered voter. Commissioners are charged with the responsibility of overseeing the District’s efforts to deliver drinking water and see that wastewater (sewage) is processed in a responsible manner within the confines of a municipally imposed budget. Interested candidates should be ready to assume the burden of that balance. An understanding of basic accounting, construction, industrial operations, responsible business operations or related skills as well as an appreciation for the limitations of budgeting laws in NH Municipalities are desirable.

Interested individuals should contact the Clerk of the District by phone at 603-742-8124 or by email and the Chair of the Commissioners, Verne Crosier, at 603-749-9210 or by email explaining why they would wish to be appointed Commissioner.

Creation of Low-Salt Area on General John Sullivan Way

At its meeting of 3/27, the  Select Board met with Michael Trainque, consulting engineer for the Rollinsford Water and Sewer District, regarding the district’s request to create a low-salt area on General John Sullivan Way in order to help protect the newly opened WSD well.

After reviewing with Engineer Trainque and Road Agent St. Jean, the Board agreed to create the low-salt area.   Our road agent will coordinate with the Rollinsford WSD for the installation of road signs to indicate the area.  Attached (or linked) with this notice is the diagram of the well and the extent of the low-salt area (approximately 712 linear feet).

The Select Board will also work with Road Agent St. Jean later this year to review the possibility of trimming back the tree canopy to allow more sunlight on the road, enabling better melting via natural means.
