DIXVILLE — Renewed investor interest in the Balsams Resort has local officials pushing to get the Golf Links Road reinstated on the state’s Ten Year Highway Plan.

With the 2023-32 plan currently before the legislature for approval, Executive Councilor Joseph Kenney (R-Wakefield) said timing is critical for Les Otten and his team to finish their financing if they want the road added to the plan.
