Selectmen are going to lift the cease and desist order!
We are hearing that the selectmen plan to lift the cease and desist order against the Osborns. The reasons apparently have to do with our Town Counsel again.
So far the story is that because they have not completed the work on their house within the year prescribed by the "waiver of liability agreement" signed by the town and the Osborn's, the town is taking the position that their violation of that provision of the agreement negates the entire agreement.
How ignorant is this reasoning? The Town had the Osborn's agree to certain conditions in order to obtain their building permit. They have violated every one of those conditions and now the town's position is going to be that they can't do anything because the Osborn's violations had the effect of negating the agreement?
So why do we have building and zoning codes if the town is going to selectively enforce them? Why should anyone go through the permitting process if the town is impotent to enforce those codes?
In this situation there is a house built on the lake that has violated building codes, is being lived in without an occupancy certificate, has been built BIGGER than was permitted, has a driveway that is laid across someone else's property, and has involved unpermitted excavation, AND the town STILL does not have accurate plans that the house has been built from, nor does it have engineered plans for this new driveway construction!
But the Town isn't going to enforce ANY of these regulations! And they wonder why we think this town's government is corrupt?

What exactly does this mean for all the work that the Osborns are doing?
Common sense would say if the agreement is negated, that the house and all the work would be forced to cease. Then again, when is common sense followed in Atkinson?
whah, whah, whah, whaz up!
So much for the BOS standing up to
right and wrong
Why? DES, the Fire Chief, building inspector all have problems with this, and the real property owner has a case filed. This makes no sense at all.
I try to put my faith in the town that they will do right by all citizens. I feel as though I have been let down yet again.
Look at the title, "Heard around the Town ..."
The author does not have a stellar record when dealing with rumors. I suggest waiting for some real news before speculating anything.
it will happen it will be lifted she has got connections in the bos and the town police station no one is safe from them they will get away with everthing they have been and have not been doing. it is sick and disgusting and i am sick to my stomach and by the way take a ride up to the osborn's new home no occupancy PERMIT AND THEY ARE LIVING THERE ... there boat is out of the water are you telling me they ae swiming to there other home every night ......i don't think so were are the officals now?when the proof is sitting right there. right now and what is being done nothing and what will be done nothing because some one is doing inside favors for them open you eyes people!!!!!!!!

First, the beginning of sentences are capitalized. So is "i" when used as a single letter referring to yourself. Where did you learn to write, Sears?
Second, get back on you meds before something really bad happens.
You want to be taken seriously, write like an adult who had a proper education. And don't rant. Makes you look foolish.
If the BOS does nothing then our town government will descend once again into being no more than pitiful joke of a government, and Atkinson once again becomes the most embarrassing town to live in around So NH.
Cronyism in this town is already rampant; the bias towards business concerns and insiders has reached such a level of blatant disregard for the desires of the ordinary citizens that I think this may actually be the last straw for many people in town.
Harold Morse gets deliveries for East Coast Lumber at the Lewis Homes land IN BLATANT DISREGARD of the submitted use of that land (which means tractor-trailer loads of lumber going through residential neighborhoods), he pumps our own water out from under us, former ZBA members build houses any damn way they want in defiance of local and state ordinances and agreements, our police chief arrests and harrasses anyone that dare speak out against him (and harasses people that sign petitions against his interests with the implied threat that they'll go on his enemies list), our selectmen sit by the whole time and don't do a damned thing...
How long until enough of us get embarassed about this and actually DO SOMETHING? Do we stand by forever while 3 or 4 people actually take the heat for standing up to these people in our stead or do we find the courage to start going to town meetings ourselves and start having our voices heard?
anon 10/30 pm really, really you REALLY HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO YOU EVEN Harass people on this blog sick !
Before everyone gets their collective panties in a bunch, if the C&D order does get lifted, find out the real reason why. The Osborn's lawyer indicated that the C&D order as written wouldn't be able to stand up in court. Better to remove it than to open yourself up for a lawsuit for an illegal order. There are other methods of enforcement including not granting an occupancy permit, etc. It's important that this be handled correctly by the town. I saw no indication from Bill Friel and the rest of the board that they were in any way being complicit with what the Osborn's were doing. Nor, for that matter, was Mike Murphy. I don't see how you could have watched that meeting and come away with anything else.
Ok when will bos stop illegal occupant without a permit? When he'll freezes over? You like to spout you know it all.
Why are they there? Whose allowing it and responsible?
Answer that.
"anon 10/30 pm really, really you REALLY HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO YOU EVEN Harass people on this blog sick !"
If the submitters take the time to offer a valid argument, and type it in a manner so we that don't have to strain to read it, they would not get harassed. The posting you refer to looks like it was written by an 8 year old.
October 23, 2009 9:23 AM gets it. This entire topic is based on a rumor and virtually every responder has gone flying off handle assuming the worst. October 23, 2009 9:56 AM is exactly what I'm talking about. Nothing but a rant.
This topic is what it is, a rumor with no facts to substantiate it. I have faith our BOS will do the right thing, for the right reasons.
So, cool your jets and vile and trying waiting for some real news, not something overheard at the Village Store. You have a question for the BOS, their number is in the book. They are not going to answer any questions from anyone here, of that you can be sure.
How, exactly, anon @ 9:56 am I spouting like I know it all? I watched the meeting. I recall what the Osborn's lawyer said. If he is correct, and the C&D order was not issued properly, then the correct coarse of action is to remove it and reissue it if there is legal standing to do so. I want our BOS operating within the legal bounds of the law. Don't you?
With regards to your question on illegal occupancy, you need to ask the BOS that. I will not speak for them. I do not know if this has been reported, nor do I know what the enforcement tools are that would be available if this is indeed the case. I would encourage you to speak to the BOS directly. Complaining to this blog is not, I repeat, is not going to get you anywhere other than possibly having a forum to vent.
In my humble opinion this is one giant clusterf--- of mistakes on all sides. Town Counsel screwed up, BOS screwed up, Fire Chief screwed up, Building Dept screwed up, Osborns screwed up, EVERYBODY messed this whole thing up. Like it or not you'll never be able to point at one party and give them 100% of the blame even if you think its all the Osborns they have some valid points no matter how you look at it. Their neighbors should provide facts and stop whining so damn much. FACTS people. We need FACTS. As someone once said GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT. Whining on a blog does nothing. And you'll never pin this all on one party. Its a group screw up. I'm tired of the spin and still waiting to see and hear all the facts.
Question still stands.
Why is occupancy allowed without a permit? Whose allowing it and responsible?
Answer that.
Answer still stands. Report it to the BOS. If it hasn't been reported, then your implication that someone is "allowing" it is incorrect. Why are you posting this question on the blog? Why aren't you interacting with our town officials? They were elected by us to represent us. They can't represent you if you fail to interact with them.
Do you think your postings on the blog are productive? Do you think somehow your posts are going to produce your desired outcome? I'm starting to believe that people just want a place to vent and they really don't want to do anything about their issues. Stop complaining and stand up for yourself. It's the only real way to have your issues addressed.
The BOS HAS been Told. They have sent a letter asking if the Osborns are living there. Selectmen say they can't do anything about it.
If they can't, then who can?
Question still stands.
Why is occupancy allowed without a permit? Whose allowing it and responsible?
Answer that.
I'm sure the blog fairie will come along any moment now and make it all better because you posted on an anonymous blog. Stand tall and congratulate yourself for your fine accomplishment. Maybe you can focus your efforts on fixing the economy with your blog posts as well. I'm sure we'd all be delighted.
You corrupt town officials must like lawsuits. You keep asking for them.
I agree the town seems like a magnet for all these suits. However, if we're gonna bring suit,
please make it a winnable suit. It appears the town wins 99% of everything brought against them.
Perhaps Sumners advise isn't so bad as the bloggers make him out to be since he lands on the winning side more often than not.
JMO
"You corrupt town officials must like lawsuits. You keep asking for them."
And which ones might that be. I do believe the current controversy mostly involves the BOS. One has been a member for over a year, another less than one year. Are saying they are corrupt and to blame?
It is statements like yours that make many town officials ignore the Blog. It is comments like these that have made this blog a hollow shell of its former self.
Keep it up buddy.
Witch hunt!
Witch hunt! Witch hunt the blog is on a witch hunt!
You joke about a witch hunt, but tell me what the real purpose is of this particular blog. The blog admins want to forment bad will towards those in charge. Nothing more, nothing less. If you don't like the way things are run, get involved. Get on the ballot. Tell us why you'd be a better choice. Join a committee. Do SOMETHING. If you care about Atkinson, then make a difference. Posting your gripes here isn't productive.

It isn't that they win, but the town insurance company attornies spend unbelievable amounts of time and money, peeling away and delaying cases, until they have managed through the judicious use of technicalities to rob the plaintiff's of their day in Court. The cases that go to court, they settle, after spending a year or so spending time and money to file motions. Tens of thousands of dollars have been wasted in this fashion keeping our police chief and former selectmen out of the hot seat. They have never had a clear wim in court.
Excuse me , they have never had a clear loss in any suit I know of.
Truth is you are scared to death of pubic opinion. And you are scared enough to even intimidate someone over spelling.
You are scared to death of the blog. It's very obvious to everyone who reads it.
And it will continue
And you will continue to try every way to stop it
Maybe it's global warming that has so many in your face.
I heard from a Plaistow police officer that all of them read this blog. That's just one example of interest. That's all.
You don't know what to do really but your presence and deviousness expose you.
Good luck in the court of opinion. For your sake I hope you get some help and start taking your meds again.
Dear Atkinson Reporter,
You have made allegations of "violated codes" what facts do you have to back up your claims? Can you please tell us where to find these violated codes.
1. Bigger than permiited? - can you tell use where to find the building size code? Other than no higher than 35 feet. Didn't know there was a size code?
2. Proof that there are not rights to build a driveway. What does the deed say? How do you back up this claim?
3. What unpermitted excavation? What permit are they missing? Where do you get that permit?
4. Engineered plans for driveway. Can you site the building code that you need engineered plan to construct the driveway? By the way didn't the Fire Chief have engineered plans from them, but said they were not good enough for him. Where is the written code for that.
You complain that the BOS can't enforce the building and zoning codes. What codes are you asking to be enforced. What good is your reporting for the blog if you can't back up your claims with facts.
I would appreciate some clarification on your article?
Concerned you don't know what you are writing about!
"I heard from a Plaistow police officer that all of them read this blog. That's just one example of interest. That's all."
If true then it is simply because they like a good laugh, nothing more.
Scared of the Blog! That is the biggest joke of all. It does not in any way, shape or form represent public opinion of the general population. It is run by a couple of busy bodies who remind me of the mob that could not shoot straight, and largely contributed to by a bunch of armchair quarterbacks who have opinions about most everything, but can't get off their fat asses and do something about it.
Example - constant questions of why the BOS is doing or not doing something. The number of town hall is posted on the towns web site, and all the BOS members have listed phone numbers. Don't bitch here, CALL THEM.
Scared of the blog. Excuse me while I catch my breath from laughing so hard.
"You are scared to death of the blog. It's very obvious to everyone who reads it."
You are either delusional or have visions of grandeur. The blog incites about as much fear as a hamster in a cage.
Excuse me while I shake in my boots in fear of the Attorney Douglas. Wait a minute, didn't he just blow his latest slam dunk?
You blog from civic interest we are to suppose? Drop another Zoloft in your mouth when laughing. Could help you with your obsessive compulsion spelling intimidation disorder.
There are other pills that will help you with your anxiety and blog fear. Don't know the names but bet your psychiatrist will help you.

October 22, 2009 7:09 PM
Dear Concerned a 12:03pm,
Maybe one of the selectmen who reads this will help you, or Tim, Curt maybe. I doubt the Editor of the blog will give you the facts.
The Blog is not about facts just unfounded complaints about our town. The Editor does not live in Atkinson. He has moved but still enjoys trying to have some power-so he thinks in Atkinson.
Hey Maggie, I'll handle this one;
1.) You got a variance to allow you to build a bigger house than would normally be allowed for that lot, and you have exceeded THAT! You were given a building permit for 48' of width, your foundation is 50' and you have a 2' overhang from that. And your permit does nto mention the living space you have created above the garage, does it?
2.) Your DEED says "including a right of way from town class V road to all said lots". There is already a ROW accessing those lots that has been in use for 70 years. NOWHERE in YOUR deed does it allow you to lay a SECOND ROW across Mrs. Davis land.
3.)Any excavation within the town is subject to the permit process.
4.)Maggie called it a "driveway/fire rd.". Chief Murphy told her that he needed engineered plans before he could approve that and waive the need to sprinkle. He needed to be certain it could hold the weight of the fire truck, and the slope would allow truck passage. He still hasn't received those. He stated monday all he has received are the "elevations" or drawings.
Maggie if this is the best you can do, you should pack it in now.
I just love it when "Anonymous" is referred to as a single person.
Let's see, so far "Anonymous" has been
-Frank
-Jack
-Harold
-Phil
-Maggie
-Zombie
-Leon
-etc, etc, etc.
Say, speaking of Leon, that subject has been surprising quiet. First he claims his freedom of speech has been violated and we hear about it for almost a year. Then, he's arrested. Now, normally, that should have created such an uproar that everyone in town should have gotten a summons to appear.
But, what, the subject suddenly dies. Maggie cuts down a few trees and it is WWIII. Leon gets arrested and its, well, let's see, no, not a big thing really.
It is all very confusing you see. First, he's being oppressed and WILL BE AVENGED. And then, a "Federal" judge thinks differently, dismisses the case, and shortly afterward is arrested.
A little claim of payback is spouted, but then nothing.
Could it be, possibly, even remotely, it was justified and the blog is suddenly embarrassed to admit it???
How can this be? A man is out there fighting for our rights, has supposedly the best lawyer is the state on it, gets his case dismissed without ever seeing the light of jury, and is then arrested?
What is going on here? Did the laws of physics just get violated, or perhaps our great savior is suddenly not so great and the blog owners are trying to hide it.
Just curious. What is the real story here?
You know, we will find out eventually. So, Mr. Heard Around Town, what have you heard to that we can immediately dismiss it as factual?
do you OR the osbors offer ANY prroof that Mr. Artus tried to "run them down" with his car?
There were witnesses that it wasn't true when she said it of Mrs. Davis' kid.
Leon, what's the answer? We're waiting...............
You all know I am not from Atkinson and I have not been on Valcat Road although I have driven by it on Chase Island Road.
That said, here is a sincere attempt to address the questions that were raised:
1. Bigger than permiited? - can you tell use where to find the building size code? Other than no higher than 35 feet. Didn't know there was a size code?
--Perhaps Tim D could confirm my hunch that the building size is connected to the shorelands protection act, which essentially requires a site plan for residential construction in shoreland areas. I know a little about this because my family owns some shoreland property and we have consulted with a landscape architect who has done projects for other people.
A big thing is minimizing the amount of impermeable areas where rain won't go straight down into the ground. This includes buildings, driveways, patios, etc. You are supposed to have no more than 40% (I think), otherwise you have to get waivers. So you do get a permit to build according to your plan, which shows your house being a specific size. If you build it bigger, you are out of compliance with your permit.
2. Proof that there are not rights to build a driveway. What does the deed say? How do you back up this claim?
-- This will only be resolved by a judge. See Plan 24311. On the one hand, the ROW is shown on the plan and was in the deed when Carol Davis bought her property. On the other hand, there never was a road or driveway there until now, and just because a ROW was reserved, it doesn't necessarily follow that a particular party (Osborn) has a right to use it. Also the plan and deed do not acknowledge the actual ROW that is in use across her property, so it is somewhat suspect as depicting the complete situation.
3. What unpermitted excavation? What permit are they missing? Where do you get that permit?
-- I think that this is the waiver agreement between the Osborns and the town where they agreed not to make changes to Valcat Road (lane?) without the selectmen's permission. But this was based on Valcat being a Class 6 (public unmaintained) road. If this is actually a private road, which seems to be the case, then this part of the agreement is meaningless because the selectmen have no authority over private roads.
4. Engineered plans for driveway. Can you site the building code that you need engineered plan to construct the driveway? By the way didn't the Fire Chief have engineered plans from them, but said they were not good enough for him. Where is the written code for that.
-- I couldn't find the zoning ordinance etc on your town web site, not that it might not be there someplace.
You do need some sort of documentation where the end of the driveway connects to the town road, in any case.
In this case, the need for an engineering plan is tied to a waiver for a sprinkler system. Danville requires sprinklers for all new construction. Atkinson has some sort of waiver that can apply based on road access. The town needs to sign off that a fire truck could actually travel over the road/driveway to the residence, based on width, slope and turning angles.
"do you OR the osbors offer ANY prroof that Mr. Artus tried to "run them down" with his car?
There were witnesses that it wasn't true when she said it of Mrs. Davis' kid."
What I think or what proof I may or may not have has absolutely no bearing on the question.
Our hero is arrested and given the hyperbole we were subjected to for months on how justice would prevail, one would normally believe that if he was subject to a false arrest that is all we'd be hearing about.
Think of the opportunities to level a whole new set of claims against the chief. This is priceless material.
But yet, nothing. I believe for what we had to put up with for the last year we are owed some explanations. Or is suddenly the truth an inconvenience?
CS
Law reguires deed to state ref to a plan . you ref a plan which has no deeded ref. val cat has row established by plan in 1920's. lots have deeded access to val cat. plan drawn in 90's has no known deed ref's That is the law RSA 477:3-a and recen NH sc case law.
To anon@October 25, 2009 3:01 PM
I'm not a lawyer and I haven't made any study of real estate cases.
With respect to the rights of property owners to use Valcat, I'm sure they have rights. Who could possibly defend the Osborns for cutting off their road access, if that is the case. My only point is that if Valcat is not a Class 6 road, it is not a public matter.
Regarding the validity of the new ROW, I agree it is questionable. My non-expert take from reading about various cases that have been of interest to me for one reason or another is that the judge will not necessarily follow what might seem like the only clear path to you or me. So it will likely go to court and the judge will decide one way or the other. I'm not going to place bets.
It is at least possible that the parties could reach an agreement to open the new ROW in exchange for closing the current one.
leon was arrested out of revenge and pay back nothing more nothing less. . i am at the point with the osborns that i do not even let my children out side becuase i am afraid that either one of them in a rage, is going to hit one of my chilren when they are outside. and every time i am out side i have a camera or vido beiong taped of me and my children it has got so bad i had to seek legal advice on this matter.i was also pearsonally threatend by mr.osbourn the other night as he scremed you better have a good lawyer you want to talk about witch hunts.they are on a witch hunt to screw everyone who try's to protect carol davis and her rights and her proerty. so just some advice as we are put through hell on a daily basis becareful when it comes to this subject because you could be the next check on their list. it's an uneasy feeling living in a neighborhood with so much tension,but i try not to stoop to there level as i was thretend the other night i also weighed the factor of callin the police when i thought listen to yourself is it worth it there could be a real emergency somewere and i don't feel the need to blow up the atkinson pd's phone wtih silly phone calls and such. but word to the wise hit one of my children flying around in your cars because your upset with people for your own mistakes ,someone will pay and they better have a good lawyer
Thanks for your post and I can only imagine your hurt and the neighborhood tension. Please keep posting the truth. It reads like the truth and is easy to understand.
If any sick critic comes here to attack you for spelling etc Just remember you can be heard loud and clear.
thank you !!
See Plan 12387, which shows the land west of Davis and west of Osborn. It doesn't show Valcat running beyond Osborn.
CS - You have to look at the Stowers plan of 1925. that is the plann that lays out Valcat and isthe record plan for the ROW's to lots of interest.
I agree, I wish I could get to the plan online.
It is unfortunate that the late 20th century plans I have quoted on this site have significant omissions. The VALente-CATalano plan shows a paper ROW and omits the actual one that passes through Davis's property, and this plan completely omits Valcat, even though it shows 2 axles where Valcat enters 22-46, which I assume mark the edges of the physical road.
I suspect that these surveys contributed to the statements and actions of the Osborns. You or I or Tim can say they are wrong, but our opinions carry no weight. Either there will be an agreement with Davis (unlikely), or it will go before a judge.

I'm quite proud you were able to spell thank you correctly. You should go to remedial reading {1st grade level} instead of playing out in the street all day. Also, you may try evening classes. Good luck!

It sounds like all the neighbors hate the Osborn's. I get along with my neighbors quite well. I couldn't imagine living in a place where all my neighbors hated me. I have to wonder what would motivate them to want to stay. Your home should be a place of peace, not a place of anger. It's a shame to see these kinds of things happening. Are the Osborn's rich by chance? Is it possible that they will end up going bankrupt over this?
Anon 8:12am, I really feel bad for you ,that you don't have anything better to do than harass me on this blog. you talk about remidial 1st grade level. you are making yourself look foolish. you are acting out as if you are in 1st grade you disgust me. I think that deep down inside you are scared to death. that people are going to figure you out, if they have not already so don't quit your day job. and why don't you find something more constructive to do with your time than harass me every giving chance you get. you a disgrace and i hope someday you can be at peace with yourself and others. and stop being so critical of what other people are doing and saying. and worry about your own problems you have.

Nothing like living in Atkinson.

Anon 10:16 AM, why don't you focus on the topic of this blog article and stop correcting people's spelling and grammar? Many of us on this post care about the town and issues that are going on. We may not always agree on things but we should respect each other's opinions and not stoop to insults.
Seems to me that you have a hair across your ass about something and are trying to feel better by taking your frustrations out on someone else. Let's move on from this.

"Leon was arrested out of revenge and pay back nothing more nothing less."
Pay back for what? He had his highly touted lawsuit dismissed. Given the hype, that would seem to be very embarrassing for him. Why the need for payback on this one.
As for the Osborn's: Seems like she has no friends on the BOS given their performance last week. What payback could there be here?
Sorry to persist, but this one does not add up. If it were payback certainly he would be speaking out against it, profusely. Yet, eerie silence.
He stuck himself in the middle of this mess and made front page news here when I tried to sandbag the BOS. Now, all of the sudden, the tap has gone dry. Just wanna know why.
Anon 12:39 PM, you shouldn't assume that all hte people on this blog just complain and are not active in the town. That may be the case for some, but I can happily say that the assumption does not apply to me. :)

Ha Ha ha .... Sooo funny ....Not !!!
OK, lets get serious for moment.
I'm a terrible speller. If it were not for spell checkers my stuff would look like real crap, rather than made up crap.
But, as far as grammar goes, the simple fact is that if you want to convey your thoughts effectively, you have to make easy to read. When the spelling, punctuation and grammar get to the point you have to decipher what the author is trying to say, most of the meaning is already lost.
I feel for October 25, 2009 6:28 PM, but it is a hard read.
No, I'm not the spelling, punctuation, or capitalization cop. But using those tools we learned from elementary school up is far more pleasing to the eye, wouldn't you agree?
The spelling and grammar critic wants you to feel reluctant to write. Ignore it and write.
This is a "BLOG" not a spelling quiz. You really need to grow up. It's getting old.
So my question is, has the Cease & Desist order been lifted ? And on what grounds?
No one knows ?
Nah. I'd rather not grow up and get old. Thanks for the offer though.
Ok?
where's the beef?
where's the beef?
The beef here is with the lack of a capital W at the beginning of your sentence.
You have got to be kidding me? This clown again?
You have got to be kidding me? This clown again?
You have got to be kidding me!
This clown again?
Beef Wellington!
May we call you Beef Boy?
Or are you beefless?
You have got to be kidding me?
This sentence is a statement, therefore it should be ended with a period not a question mark.
Just drove by and saw digging on Valcat rd Two machines One digging straight down where Valcat used to be The other taking out what used to be Valcat rd going towards the lake!
The big machines are digging big time. Go see em. The noise is something else.
So this means what exactly ? Does this mean they are back in business? Ok so i am making an educated guess that the C&D was lifted. And they must have got there occupancy permit to. It looks to me as they are living there ,lights on at 10 pm ,cars parked there at night. You can see it from the top of Hemlock Heights. Now that all the trees are gone. Don't need to worry about the AFD OR APD not being able to find your house. You can see it as clear as day. Even if you don't want to. It sticks out like a sore thumb.
And there was dead silence.
dug valcat all morning
yes they did
The spelling, grammer, and punctuation of some of these posts is terrible. Have you people not been paying attention to your lessons???

Careful. Some here get very incensed when you point out their lack of command of their mother tongue.
When it is someone with whom English is a second language, that I can understand. But it sure does make you wonder how some of these folks made it through high school, of course, assuming they did.
Hey, Mr. Heard around the Town. Heard any juicy tidbits with that water glass of yours up against the wall?
