They favor harsh restrictions for steep slope development (much of Moultonborough fits this category) and strict controls of business signs and lighting.
Their vision of a town with nothing but farm houses and church steeples would be wonderful thing if nobody needed to work.
Most of our young people leave right after school because there are so few opportunities here......they should be encouraging small busness instead dreaming up new restrictions.
Chris, on the other hand has a business in town, has been in the trenches, mentoring at the school, sponsoring and raising money for youth hockey and other sports and is on the board of United way.
Chris would be the only voice of reason for sensible growth and jobs.

Don't you love the candidate pushing for "work force housing" and at the same time making it difficult for business. What does "work force housing" prove if there are no jobs ???
