Conservation Commission Approves Beaver Dam Pipe Installation, Discusses Town Forest Upkeep

The Conservation Commission discussed and approved the installation of two pipes to address beaver dams, with a budget not to exceed $4,000. This decision is contingent upon obtaining permission from the adjacent landowner. The commission also reviewed updates on town forest cleanups, senior hikes, and the placement of dog waste bins. Additionally, they addressed concerns regarding dead trees near a residential property and power lines, deciding to obtain quotes for removal or to assess the feasibility of making them 'snags' after consulting with the code enforcement officer.
