I recently talked to one of the local LEOs and asked about the squatting issue and he told me that if there was ever someone on our property that we didn’t want there and they refused to leave, to call them and they would take care of him/them.

New Hampshire seems to follow the traditional common law rule on adverse possession. One of my law school professors told of how NYU law school had built a concrete pad in front of an entrance to their most important building, with the pad indistinguishable from the city's public sidewalk.

Once a year, the law school shut the entrance and barricaded the concrete pad so as to assert its ownership and defeat any possible claim that a permanent public easement had been through adverse possession.
