Depot Advisory Committee
This Page was Last Updated on
The goals of the Committee are
to:
Research/locate any previous survey(s) of the
property and/or arrange for a current survey to clearly establish the parcel
bounds.
Ascertain ownership of and document clear title
to the buildings located at the site.
Support the historic perspective of the land and
buildings through research, photographic documentation, etc.
Review the current operation of the Highway
Department sand/salt functions and determine the space needs of the Department
and/or any possible conflicts in continuing Highway operations at the site.
Develop alternate uses for the site and prepare
long-term use recommendations. Also, develop budgetary and time-frame
information to support those recommendations.
Meet with representatives of the Department of
Resource and Economic Development, Department of Transportation, or other
interested parties, as necessary throughout the process to compare available
information and discuss a framework for potential future joint use of the
property. Also, discuss the potential acquisition by the Town of the currently
remaining State property at the site.
Develop final report for presentation to all
parties detailing the Committee’s findings regarding the Windham Depot.
The Committee has conducted an extensive site walk at the property, and
has explored the interiors of the buildings, which are remarkably
well-preserved. Correspondence has also been sent to the departments of
Transportation and Resource and Economic Development regarding possible
acquisition of the area. As new information becomes available on this
prospect, updates will be posted here. Also, coming soon will be more
extensive photographs, vintage and current, of this unique historic
area.
