OSSIPEE — Despite concerns from the Register of Deeds, the Carroll County commissioners Wednesday lifted the mask mandate for the county administration building.
The administration building at 95 Water Village Road houses the county attorney’s office, the commissioners' office, deeds office, sheriff's office and other offices such as for human resources and finance.

I visited the County Building after the Commission lifted the mask mandate. There was a sign on the front door very clearly declaring that "Masks are OPTIONAL." You walk through the front door and then, ten feet to your left, there is another sign on the Register of Deeds door declaring "PLEASE WEAR A MASK TO KEEP OUR STAFF SAFE." I guess Ms. Scott thinks she knows better than both the Commission, the New Hampshire state government, and the CDC.
