GORHAM — State Rep. William “Bill” Hatch, a Democrat who represents Gorham and Shelburne, asked selectmen recently what he could do to help speed up both implementation of a lane shift on Route 16 to accommodate OHRVs and the creation of a new OHRV parking.
Hatch had the lead spot on the selectmen’s agenda on Monday, April 13.
