Laconia will be getting a new City Planner. The current head of the Planning Department has resigned to take a similar position in Somersworth, NH. This is her last week.

Although Shanna Saunders made an effort to improve the city from downtown to the Weirs there remains much work to be done. As has been said, the existing businesses, property owners, and topography present significant challenges and are an impediment to change.

It will be interesting to see if a new person in the position of City Planner will bring fresh ideas and a different perspective to the task. Improvements in the area will benefit everyone from visitors to property owners.
