Attorney accuses state of fraud over skatepark
Pietrangelo claims the state must offer the surplus land to the town/county first, then sell the parcels at fair market price. If the town wants to resell it, the land must first be offered back to the state. On Sept. 3, attorneys with the N.H. Department of Justice filed a motion to dismiss on behalf of state officials on Sept. 3. That clearly suggests fraud by defendants/respondents on the court.”The DOJ attorneys says Pietrangelo’s allegations are “actually baseless and taken out of context.”The state filed a response Nov. 15 saying any suggestion of fraud should be disregarded. “Furthermore, NHDOT simply has not been involved in the planning or construction of the skate park nor has the plaintiff presented evidence showing this assertion is false.

South Asia Pursues $625 Billion Renewable Energy Goal Bangladesh focuses on climate financing and regional cooperation to boost clean energy initiativesSouth Asia stands on the brink of transformation as it aims to triple its renewable energy capacity by 2030, requiring substantial funding estimated at $625 billion. "The time has come for Bangladesh to invest heavily in renewable energy measures," Rizwana asserted, highlighting how rooftop solar energy projects could meet up to 40% of the nation’s renewable energy requirements. Bangladesh is actively exploring hydropower options from both Nepal and Bhutan, seeking avenues through India to create mechanistic ties for sharing energy resources. "The notion of land shortage for renewable energy projects is unfounded," she remarked, calling for the political will to overcome these hurdles. The commitment to renewable energy reflects hope, driven by collaboration and innovative approaches to resource management.
