Dover Council Divided Over Museum Move Cost and Stability
Dover city officials weigh funding a $650,000 foundation repair for the Portsmouth Children's Museum site on Washington Street. Mayor Scott Myers and three councilors back the move to Butterfield Gym, while Councilor Robert Keays and Deputy Manager Jason Hindle consider opposing Aug. 8 funding, warning of a potential legal clash if denied. The museum seeks space for expansion after a decade-long site search and a 2005 lease agreement with the city for Butterfield Gym renovations.

Contested hotel project clears final hurdle in Portsmouth
In 1985 Ray Ramsey bought a Portsmouth parcel at Kearsarge Way and Market Street Extension to build a hotel. After 22 years of hearings before Superior and state Supreme Court judges and numerous city-board presentations, Ramsey won approval. An objection from Matthew Senior, a federal inmate, arrived too late to affect the decision, say city officials.
