Illegal use of HP placard at Wolfeboro Town dock

and that is what I just did. I sent an email to the town off their website, explaining that it is illegal to display auto placards from MA or NH (at least) on boat, and what do we use as boaters to indicate our need for handicap access docking.

If I get a reply, I will post it here.

As to whether the town should provide a lift...one step at a time. However, ADA can get pretty tough, and if you set up handicap access, you may need to provide equipment to be totally compliant. Railroads, for instance, have lifts at stations where the platform does not allow for same level entry from platform to train. Not saying Wolfeboro has to make these allowances, but it may have to if push came to shove with the ADA.
