Why did Plan NH come back to Littleton?
The application from the Town of Littleton requested that the Plan NH charrette team provide design ideas for the south side of the Ammonoosuc River, directly across from the downtown and the opposite side of the River from the location of the 2012 Plan NH charrette.
What the Community Told Plan NH
We held a major stakeholder session and two public sessions on Friday, September 13, 2019 and the overarching themes we heard during these sessions were:
What do you see?
- Recreational Access to the River
- Parking Challenges
- Safety and Lighting Considerations
- Community Event Space
What do you want to see?
- Maintain and Promote Natural Landscape
- Use of Area for Bikes, Pedestrians, and Snowmobiles Together
- Viewing Areas
- Connectivity between Rail Trail and Downtown
What else do we need to know?
- Need to keep the space open and adaptable
- Increase and promote safety, maintenance and cleanliness (added lighting and public restrooms)
- Attract the 30-50 year old demographic to the area
- Work to develop solutions that manage the tension of structures and open space
