Ms. Carolyn Maguire - Land Conservation Association - Plymouth County Wildlands
Trust, spoke to the Conservation Commission about her group. She stated that her
purpose is to visit towns that are affected by the Taunton River Watershed. Her
associations have been instrumental in purposing large tracts of land for conservation and
wetland protection purposes.
Chairman Cauldwell told the committee that Colin Cauldwell, Natural Resources Trust,
will not be able to chair the trail development subcommittee. After a brief discussion,
Commissioner Sadowski stated that he would be the project manager. The trail
committee will be working on a report to the full commission in the near future.
A request was received from Mr. Robert Bullock - SE211 -386, Lot 3 Jennifer Drive
regarding a partial certificate for this lot. The Commission discussed this and there are
still many unresolved issues. Commission Powers felt a sitewalk would be helpful in
aiding her decision on this request. She also asked if the Commission has received a
receipt for the dump truck removal or an as -built plan. A motion was made to table this
until 10- 17 -94. (Powers/ Hanlon) 5 -0 -0.
Dick Lewis told the Commission that he had received a request to replace the barrier
fencing for the lot at the corner of Branch and Fieldstone. The owner presently has
junipers on his plan and would like to replace them with white pines. The Commission
discussed this and felt that as the white pines grew they would not be a barrier fence.
They requested Dick Lewis to talk with the owner and discuss other types of vegetation
that would be a better choice as a barrier.
The Commission discussed putting on a warrant article for the Williams Street Bridge
Project. Town Meeting approval is necessary to transfer land. Commission Powers
suggested tothe Commission that the advice of counsel maybe necessary, however, it
should be noted that Atty. Mangiaratti notarized the present deed.
The Commission discussed the rules and regulations for Conservation Land. There were
several areas that needed to be reviewed. The Commission will discuss this after Dick
Lewis researches this issue.
The meeting adjourned at 10:05 p.m.
Respectfiilly submitted,
Maureen R. Doherty,
Secretary
