Testimonial from George Calef:
“Representative Len Turcotte was responsible for introducing and assisting in the passage of an amendment to a Senate bill that enabled me to drill a well on my own property. Without that bill, our family business would have been forced to close.”
~ George Calef Fine Foods – Barrington, NH
During my first term, this particular issue arose when the gas station/convenience store adjacent to “Calef’s Fine Foods” was attempting to get approvals from the town. Calef’s had a “shared well” located on an adjacent property. The new gas station company was not being exactly neighborly with Calef’s in attempting to find a solution to Calef’s no longer having water to their property. Due to existing regulations, Calef’s did not have the area required to place their own well, a problem that had existed within the state on several other occasions prior. Senator John Reagan, one individual in state government and myself worked on a legislative amendment to grant exceptions in these unique circumstances. I personally introduced the amendment in the Senate. Coincidently, the only vote I missed in the House of Representatives during my entire first two-year term occurred when I was introducing the amendment to help George’s unfortunate well predicament.
As a business-friendly legislator, my family and I will continue to support Barrington businesses, and their owners, both large and small.
Can current Representative Matt Towne say the same?
