These charming scenes paint an illustration of New England river towns that possess a past that has seen a steady transformation from early sawmills to a thriving textile industry, which has in turn given way to dozens of smaller businesses and residential opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>In the spring of 2012, all four participating communities endorsed the Mills Scenic Byway&#8217;s proposed designation by writing letters of support, which were signed by each governing body. The Byway was then given conditional approval by the NH Scenic and Cultural Byway Council on November 6, 2013. In order for the Council to officially designate the Mills Scenic Byway as a state byway a public hearing is required.<\/p>\n<p>Upon completion of this public hearing the State Byway Council will consider designation of the Byway at its next meeting, to be held on May 8, 2014.<\/p>\n<p>For more information:<\/p>\n<p>Kyle Pimental, Senior Regional Planner<br \/>\nStrafford Regional Planning Commission<br \/>\n603.994.3500<br \/>\nkpimental@strafford.org<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.granitestatefutures.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/218.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.granitestatefutures.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/218-150x150.gif\" alt=\"218\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-787\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Come Learn More About the Proposed Mills Scenic Byway!
