Council endorses new trust fund for deed restricted land
Portsmouth city council approved an 8 to 1 vote to create a city trust fund to compensate for encroachment on deed restricted land at Parrott Avenue now Alumni Field. Harold Whitehouse warned the move could set a dangerous precedent as land trust terms were set by the Peirce estate. The fund will cover payments from the city and a private landowner in exchange for permitted uses, while municipal parking land may require eminent domain if non recreational use is pursued.
