The Candia Heritage Commission, consisting of seven Candia residents and two alternates, all appointed by the Board of Selectmen, was established by popular vote of the 2002 Town Meeting, to provide for the proper recognition, use, and protection of Candia resources that are valued for their historic, cultural, aesthetic or community significance. The Heritage Commission has advisory and review authority only. As volunteers, our interests are in bringing to the attention of the citizens recognition of historic resources that, with protection, are considered valuable to the town's heritage.
