I have stated many times, that the State and the City of Laconia, need to work with the land owners to make it viable to develop some of the large parcels of land, and do it in such a way that will invite other events (craft fairs, boat shows, etc.) into the area.... That area down there could become so much more, and not loose the Weirs image... But all involved need to want it... However if they wait just enough longer, it will become the next Meredith tourist area and will be lost... As high Stakes developers will move in....
I don't think they will ever become the next Meredith if that's what you are worried about. Their taxes is too high to encourage development and they discourage change.
