PUBLIC WORKS BUILDING UPDATE

The pre-construction meeting with the Town, USDA, the Architect and Kuplin Land Services finally took place on October 1, 2024. We received the go ahead for the work to start.

NH DOT DRIVING TOWARD ZERO

With roadway fatalities up this year, the NH DOT has a program called "Driving Toward Zero (DTZ)". This was developed in part for those who have pledged to be a safer driver with their program. Their goal was to introduce DTZ and some basic concepts of Highway Safety. They intend to take some deeper dives into Highway Safety activity in the future.

911 C.A.R.E.S. PROGRAM SIGNUP

NH 911 C.A.R.E.S. (previously Supplemental Ali) is now available online. Accessing your account information is easier than ever as you can access it anytime, anywhere using the NH 911 C.A.R.E.S. website. The C.A.R.E.S. (Citizen Assistance Registry for Emergency Services) website is a service that provides additional information to an emergency 911 dispatcher at the time of a 911 call. In use for more than 10 years, CARES information has been used in countless 911 calls, assisting dispatchers by providing important information that a caller may not be able to provide them verbally. This information is medical in nature, and thus protected by the NH 911 Division and only used for emergency services at the time of a 911 call. NH 911 is dedicated to providing the best emergency care in the shortest amount of time, and the CARES program is one aspect of that mission.

To register yourself or someone else, please log onto https://cares.desc.nh.gov and set up a New Account.

If you have any questions or need assistance with registration, please contact us at 603-271-6911 or NH911CARES@desc.nh.gov.
