The Cochecheo Waterfront Development Advisory Committee at its Feb. 21 meeting elected Norm Fracassa as its new chair, replacing Dana Lynch, who stepped down from committee chair after leading it, in his latest stint, since 2018. Lynch, who has been part of the effort to develop the city-owned waterfront for decades, will remain on the committee.

Fracassa has been CWDAC’s vice chair for the past few years. Following Fracassa’s appointment to chair, CWDAC elected Sean Fitzgerald as vice chair.

CWDAC then received a report from its Parks Subcommittee on its Feb. 15 meeting with CJ Architects, the firm the City Council awarded the bid to in January for architectural design services for the waterfront park building.

CDWAC also received an update on the bid process for public improvements for the waterfront development, due on March 9. This is the second bidding for the public improvements. The first bid released in September received no proposals from the four pre-qualified firms submitted due in large part to the deadline for shoreline work set by the Army Corps of Engineers permit.

The city has since received a new permit from the Army Corps of Engineers that extends the deadline. City staff also revised the bid in response to questions raised by the potential bidders.

CDWAC’s Feb. 21 meeting can be viewed in its entirety at https://dovernh.viebit.com/player.php?hash=ozOd0tX3DARh.
