We dealt with this in my town a few years back when out-of-towners were coming to our town's beach and destroying it. Since federal moneys had been taken, we were unable to shut it down and had to come up with a workaround to...reduce its attraction.

That is correct. Laconia accepts federal funds to maintain Weirs Beach. That is why the beach is open to the public. Because of the amount of garbage left by the people who use it, the city council opt to close the beach to the public. The city attorney bought this up.
Gilford may not use state and federal funds to upgrade/maintain the beach.
