CONWAY — The Conway School Board’s John Fuller Ad Hoc Committee is putting together a request for proposal to develop 2 acres for potentially 16 affordable housing units off Mason Street on the property where the former John H. Fuller Elementary School in North Conway Village sits.
The Conway School Board voted Aug. 10 "to have the committee develop and receive responses to an RFP for deed-restricted affordable housing, which would include the potential subdivision of the John Fuller School property,” Superintendent Aimee Frechette said at the outset of the Aug. 19 meeting.
