CONWAY — A plan to build more affordable housing in town took a step forward when the Executive Council at their Aug. 30 meeting in Wakefield approved a land sale totaling about 13 acres in North Conway from the state Department of Transportation to the New Hampshire Financing Authority.

The governor and Executive Council authorized the New Hampshire Department of Transportation Authorize the Bureau of Right-of-Way to sell approximately 6.83 acres of state-owned land acquired between 1997 and 1999 for the Conway Bypass Project, located on the westside of the North-South Road. The land was sold to the Housing Finance Authority for $500,000, plus a $1,100 administrative fee.
