The Transfer Station will NOT be accepting any brush until further notice.

The following Standard Operating Procedures will be in effect until further notice. These practices are based upon public health guidelines and are designed to keep both our employees and the public safe.

• There will be only one entrance point to the Town Hall at the clearly marked green door on the side of the building.
• Traffic in the building will be one way with floor markers to maintain 6 feet of social distancing.
• Plexiglass guards have been installed at each of the high-traffic counters.
• Face masks are not required but are highly recommended. If you do not have a face mask, one will be available once inside the building.
• Common areas will be disinfected frequently, which includes but is not limited to: door handles, doorknobs, table tops and restrooms.
• Do not come to the Town Hall if you are sick or have been in contact with someone with a confirmed case of the COVID-19 virus.
• Please bring your own pen.

In order to minimize foot traffic in the Town Hall, to maximize social distancing and to reduce the risk of exposure to both residents and employees, we strongly encourage residents to continue to process property tax payments, registration renewals, dog license renewals and vital record requests by mail, the outside lock box or by using the online tools on the town website, www.townofdanburynh.com.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation. Working together we hope to have a safe and healthy reopening.

This week CNP LLC, the Town's contractor for Assessment Services will be resuming site visits in the Town of Danbury.

CNP will not be performing any interior inspection until further notice.

The CNP vehicle is a white Subaru Outback with temporary plates.

The New Hampshire Broadband Investment and Planning Initiative has partnered with Mission Broadband for a survey to capture gaps in service and the capacity needs for development of New Hampshire’s future broadband infrastructure. Mission Broadband will handle all the logistics, monitor the survey, collect results and provide data and a report for review. The data will be made available by request to anyone attempting to help move broadband efforts forward in New Hampshire and the region.
In announcing the survey, Carol Miller, Director of Broadband Technology in the NH Department of Business and Economic Affairs, stated: “While it is still difficult to consider the impacts that COVID-19 is having on all aspects of the overall broadband network, it could not be a better time to attempt to measure the weak points of the broadband infrastructure and obtain valuable information for our state and providers in the industry.”
She emphasizes that “participation in this survey is extremely important. The survey is intended for distribution to organizations, municipalities, and residents statewide. Help us to direct participants to the online survey.”
