30 HAMPTON TOWN REPORT<br />

To the Citizens of Hampton, N. H.:<br />

Our activities this past year have been devoted<br />

almost entirely to efforts toward securing the finannancing<br />

of the Final Plan for Project Area No. 1.<br />

We have been up and down many paths at both the<br />

Federal and State level, but as of this date we have<br />

not arrived at a solution which we believe to be acceptable.<br />

It appears at the moment, due to recent conditions<br />

that have developed, that we may be able<br />

to reconsider Federal Urban Renewal as some previously<br />

qualifying requirements have been changed in<br />

our favor.<br />

If we do not have the Final Plan we obviously<br />

are still not in a position to ask for the Faith and<br />

Credit of the Town, and therein lies the reason why<br />

we do not have an Article in the Warrant this year.<br />

The Authority still feels very strongly that<br />

areas that are not being used at all, or that are being<br />

used in an unplanned and piecemeal manner,<br />

impair economic values as well as impair tax revenues<br />

to the Town, and thereby threaten the financial<br />

stability of the community.<br />

The reclamation of at least a part of our marsh<br />

area is the obvious answer for the future economic<br />

prosperity of the Town of Hampton, and we shall<br />

continue to work toward that end.<br />

Respectfully<br />

submitted,<br />

Douglass E. Hunter, Vice Chairman<br />

Walter F. Vanderpool, Clerk<br />

Paul F. Leary, Treasurer<br />

Albert B. Wright, Asst. Treasurer<br />

CARL M. LOUGEE, Chairman
