EFFINGHAM — With about two dozen people watching in person, and more on Zoom, the Effingham Planning Board voted Feb. 24 that a proposed gas station at the former Boyle’ Family Market would have regional impact on neighboring towns.

On Aug. 4, the Effingham ZBA voted 4-1 to give Meena LLC a variance to allow a gas station at the former Boyle’s Market property at 41 Route 25 in Effingham. The property is just south of Leavitt Bay and southeast of Ossipee Lake. The gas station sits on a giant aquifer that serves about 14 towns in the area.
