Wilford Plans Revival of Public Dock Initiative
A revived bid for a public dock at the eastern Nant site is urged by original movers of the project. The Devon Improvement association backed the plan two years ago and aims to reuse the old bridge foundation for a low-cost wharf, with state deed transfer likely if the town votes for the dock. Regents, taxpayers, and nearby property owners are expected to oppose the move.
