GORHAM â New Trails Bureau Chief Craig Rennie of the state Department of Natural and Cultural Resources met on Monday evening with select board members Chairman Mike Waddell and Adam White as well as Town Manager Denise Vallee. Vice Chair Judy LeBlanc had said she would not be present.
Rennie was accompanied by District I supervisor Clint Savage of Gorham, who acted as interim chief for seven months after former chief Chris Gamache resigned. Rennie took up his new duties on May 21, after heâd left his post at the Department of Environmental Services Wetlands Bureau.
He met with Waddell earlier that day to discuss how very responsive ATV enthusiasts have been to the new riding routine. As hoped, ATVers have been parking above the black trestle on Route 16 and have not been loading and unloading them on the state-owned parking lot on Route 2.
GORHAM â What appeared to the selectmen to be a simple adjustment that would roll back the clock some five years during the six warmer weather months at the state-owned parking lot on Route 2 has turned out to be more complicated than anticipated.
Last fall, the board asked the state to stop allowing OHRVs to be loaded or unloaded from trailers or pickup trucks at the state-owned parking lot on Route 2 (Lancaster Road) between May 23 and Nov. 30.
After the state had developed a new alternative OHRV parking lot off Route 16 (North Main Street), north of the Depot Restaurant, this looked like an easy-peasy way to rid that neighborhood of the noise and dust that ATVs create. Access to the OHRV trail network from the new Route 16 parking lot is located adjacent to the black railroad trestle.
