About Me
- the Winchester Informer
- I am part of a group of Winchester citizens completely opposed to dirty and hazardous businesses, like asphalt and wood burning plants wanting to come into town at the expense of our quality of life. I am concerned about preserving the rural character of Winchester. These types of development have no benefits for Winchester citizens and they create many health hazards and will cause the destruction of green space. Our Winchester is known for its precious natural resources; dramatic rocky slopes, unique wetlands and abundant wildlife. I feel there are many questions concerning these proposed projects that outweigh any benefits. The increase in traffic along existing streets and noise and air pollution would be very significant. I am also concerned that the town infrastructure cannot cope with the problems these types of businesses will demand. Furthermore, I am very discouraged with the Planning Board and Zoning Boards and feel they have been negligent in their duties to protect neighboring residents from health hazards and safety issues that will surely arise and affect the lives and livelihoods of many citizens.

You have my vote Mr. Francis (Mike) Towne!
now if only people vote, vote, vote ................we might have change. you have made it easier. thank you.
I hope people wake up and realize voting for the same people year after year has gotten us nowhere and has been a big factor in why Winchester has numerous problems. It's time we seriously consider voting in new people and giving them and their ideas a chance to straighten this town out.
2. YES! For less taxes
3. Do you want the road paved or not (how many benefit)?
4. Another mandate that allows the BOS to tweak the property taxes later
5. Has the Town even paid into this since 2006?
6. If they can afford FIREWORKS the night before, do they really need extra money?
7. Stuck doing this every year.
8. This only makes last year’s warrant article legal
9. Baby boomers – what do you think? Do you want to wait 9 more years for a discount on your taxes?
10. No, they have the money in Trust
11. Not this year (no one has money).
12. Again, Is there a generous donor out there that can help?
13. Really? They built it & now they want us to cover their insurance expenses?
14. Do you want an industry built on the town’s water supply, next to the school and cemetery and in your back yard? Isn’t Plumb Pak enough?
15. This will legalize the farm animals on Route 10.
Just an FYI on the article to finish the Old Westport Road. Don't forget the road at that end was closed for a long time for the new bridge to be done and in that time the rest of the road beyond the bridge returned to grass,etc. This road is also the secondary Emergency exit road for the town if Route 10 is closed. It needs to be finished.
One point of view, WELL DONE, hope you are one of the candidates.
Will Brian Moser have his "Explain The Ballot" at the VFW?
This bridge washed out along with Verry Brook when Beaver Dam Gus Ruth's beaver dam broke costing the town thousands.
I'M betting that Mr. Moser will take the year off do to lack of interest on the part of the Winchester voters.If anyone had shone up at the two deliberative meetings, we might have something to discuss.
How much do you want to bet that the voting turn out is as small as the deliberative turn out?
With Bob Davis being discussed with the Winchester voter turn out, means John Pasquarelli will get elected. John will make a great addition to the selectmen team. It will be day all of Winchester citizen can be prod of. Prod of the fact it has the lower turn out in the state
So, what does the NEW ballot look like?
Just noticed something odd -
under the Planning Board...shouldn't Jennifer Bellan be at the bottom of the list and not the top?
Jim - you really need to proof read before sending to the printers.
