Dover residents raise warming center safety fears. City responds.
DOVER — The Veterans Hall building at 156 Back River Road will serve as a temporary emergency cold-weather warming center for unhoused people starting Nov. 15. Many neighboring residents are raising security and safety concerns. The temporary location is needed due to construction delays for the new Strafford County warming center being built on County Farm Road.
