NHEC- NH BROADBAND
This is an update regarding the internet service being rolled out by New Hampshire Electric Co-oP (NHEC). They are calling the service "NH Broadband" and they have created a website for the service: NH Broadband: https://nhbroadband.com
On the webiste, there is a place to enter a physical address and express interest in signing up when service becomes available in the area. It asks for basic contact information so they can keep people posted on their progress, there is no deposit or anything like that.
We expect that the areas with the most people requesting service will be prioritized in the build out.
The Town encourages members of the community to express interest if they think they may want to go with the Co-op for broadband. We checked the map and service will ultimately cover all parts of Groton that are served by NHEC for electricity.
Potential New Public Works Building/Highway Garage
There have been a few informational meetings and public hearings on the potential new Public Works Building/Highway Garage. Below is the letter dated 2/2/21 handed out at the 2/3/21 public hearing, the flyer from the 11/17/20 informational meeting which has some information about the meeting and costs, the list of probable costs and the updated building plans (4 bays with the offices at the back to save room) for your review.
Building explanation letter 2/2/21
Please be aware
that there is a new social security scam where they are
using the Town Clerk's name to get you to pick up the phone.
Please do not give any information and if you are not sure
if the call is legitimate, please hang up and call the Town
Clerk back at 603-744-8849 to see if she did in fact call
you for some reason. Be safe out there!
