Open Space Committee

The Open Space Committee is a subcommittee of the Conservation Commission. It consists of ten members: one each from the Planning Board, Conservation Commission, Parks & Recreation Commission, Board of Selectmen, and the remaining six members are appointed by the Board of Selectmen for three-year terms. 

The Open Space Committee is responsible for the identification and preparation of proposals for Town Meeting of properties to be acquired for open space and/or recreational use. The Open Space Committee also considers alternative methods for open space preservation, including but not limited to grants, donations, and conservation easements.
