Laconia Appointments Subcommittee approves Nov. 25 minutes, interviews four applicants
Summary
At its Feb. 5 meeting, the Laconia City Council Appointments Subcommittee approved the Nov. 25, 2025 minutes and interviewed four applicants for local boards and commissions; the minutes record interviews but do not show final appointments.
The Laconia City Council Appointments Subcommittee met Feb. 5, 2026, at Laconia City Hall and approved the minutes of Nov. 25, 2025 after a motion from Councilor Robert Soucy and a second from Councilor Mike Conant. "A motion was made by Councilor Soucy to approve the minutes of November 25, 2025," the minutes state; the motion passed unanimously.
The subcommittee then interviewed four applicants seeking seats on local boards and commissions. Nicole Arsenault requested appointment as an alternate member of the Zoning Board of Adjustment; Douglas Robinson sought a regular public member position on the Building Code Board of Appeals; Michael Little asked to be appointed as a regular member of the Planning Board; and Ryan Cardella requested reappointment to the Weirs TIF District Advisory Board. The minutes record that these individuals were interviewed but do not record any appointment votes or final actions on those applications.
Councilor Robert Soucy called the meeting to order at 6:00 p.m., and roll call confirmed Councilors Soucy, Mike Conant and Jon Hildreth were present, establishing a quorum. Nancy Brown was listed as recording secretary and administrative assistant to the city manager. The subcommittee noted there was no other business and adjourned at 7:00 p.m.
The minutes do not specify next steps or timelines for decisions on the interviews; the record simply indicates the applicants were heard. Any formal appointment or recommendation resulting from these interviews is not recorded in the Feb. 5 minutes.
