Bible sign request denied

A Barnstead man hoping to build an electronic religious sign on Route 4 in Chichester said he is gearing up for a legal battle after the town's zoning board denied his request for a variance in a 3-2 vote last night.

Water, sewer system cost up

Building a complete water and sewer system along parts of Route 3A in Bow would cost more than $2 million over what voters initially approved for the project in 2002, according to construction bids made public last night.
