CONWAY — In what is believed to be the first-ever use of the nuisance complaint section of the town’s site-plan review regulations, developers were sent back to the drawing board last Thursday by the Conway Planning Board for the controversial Viewpoint North Conway LLC Intervale Hotel project.
They are to return Jan. 13, resubmitting a possible new plan by Dec. 21.

Where the article refers to the "failed Intervale Cross Road intersection", is that some official designation of the intersection? Or just commentary on how it's a dangerous crossing at Intervale Cross Road & Rt. 16?
