Good, let him yell at me. Then he'll find himself on the other side of the law. I know where I will be spending extra time this summer. I'm not kidding.

L.P. you tell me when and I will meet you there.. Our own little "legal" protest!

Then you can join me in Braun Bay!

Sounds fun, I'll bring the whole family.

My daughter can cry on cue and my kids like to scream and splash when they swim.

Sounds like we're going to have a Forum Regatta. Should be a blast. Now we just have to wait for ice-out

Plan on it

Airwaves · 01-12-2010, 12:02 PM

Along these lines, NH Fish and Game is holding a hearing (Monday I beleive) and a public comment period (ending the 20th or 21st) for the readoption of rules regarding boat access facilities.

It does not look like any language has changed it just appears to be housekeeping, but just FYI.

I wonder if NHF&G would have something to say about the Gilford proposal?

Does it make sense to have a "Snowmobile" Reggatta this winter, or maybe that's the BEST fishing spot on the lake for the derby........I think someone told me that's where all the big lakers are

I like the way you think

Maybe I should buy an old porti-pottie and convert to a bob house.

BroadHopper · 01-12-2010, 03:47 PM

maybe we can return the old 'ice jalopies' to Winnipesaukee. Right off this point will be a great place. plenty of parking off the Ames Farm property!

'VROOM VROOM!'

Since he is retired he is most likely in a warmer climate.

Ah, but you see when he gets the ire of the neighbors because he decided to be a bully and people are protesting he'll have to deal with it from both ends.

And you can bet that anything done in that area will make the rounds of the rumor mill quickly regardless of where he may or may not be.

If we ban together we can literally drive the man insane if he's truly been known to yell at people on the lake.

evelyn · 01-12-2010, 04:27 PM

We might have to have a meeting of the minds and figure out a plan to show our position on election day.

robmac · 01-12-2010, 04:28 PM

I think all who want to participate should set a date and have an impromtu forum fest winter carnival meeting at that area. Any one up for it? Maybe the fine folks at Ames will allow us to park.

I'm up for it. I don't have a snowmobile so I have to bum a ride or bring the garden tractor

Some nice hot chocolate and walking on water would be good for some winter entertainment. I'm too fat for my skate skis, I just flatten them out now

Can someone contact Ames Farm about parking? What's a good date and when?

Lake Lady 6 · 01-12-2010, 04:57 PM

Atty. Nix - would that be the same Nix with family property within 1500 ft. on the shoreline where Ames Farm is? Also associated with the complaints this summer.

evelyn · 01-12-2010, 05:09 PM

How did you ever guess?

evelyn · 01-12-2010, 05:11 PM

Mom's house is there.

Not sure how the assessment works in Gilford but for the Nix property at 19 Riley Road but the tax card shows a purchase price of $105,000 in 1987 and now it's only assessed at $140,000. That seems really low for waterfront property.

The 2009 tax records show that the Ames Farm Motel was assessed at $2,500,000. Doesn't include all of ther cottage lots. I wonder if Ames Farm can apply for an abatement given the change in use?

You need to take a break!

That's what Nixon said to Woodward and Bernstein!

Riley Road is not waterfront. It runs west from Rt 11 (away from the lake) at the Alton/Gilford town line.

Even more reason why Mr. Nix's efforts don't add up. If you look at the meeting minutes from the Gilford website, he was very determined to make Ames Farm jump hoops for what in most cases would be easily fixed non-compliances. Personally I don't think Don Ames had a very good lawyer to lose his case like this. Precendence issues are all over Gilford that I am sure his attorney could have used.

I also would have had Mr. Nix's site plans, permitting, and buildings gone over with a fine tooth comb.

I was just checking the location and here's where 19 Riley Road is located via Mapquest.com:
