I'll call to order the Wednesday, November 12th, 2025 conservation commission meeting. In attendance, Anthony Zampuchini, Jason Gumper, Elizabeth Stoen, and Megan Logan. Did everyone have a chance to look at the open meeting minutes from 10:22 2025?
>> No. >> Any questions or changes? >> Okay. uh make a motion to approve the 1020 1022 2025 open session minutes. >> Second. >> All those in favor? >> I passes.
>> Uh project monitoring executive order 2025-05 shopping carts affiliated with 46 to 436 North Main Street dumped in. So I know Alex took more pictures. Do we need to just have they been full yet? Alex, do we >> No. So, executive order,
>> I will say. So, like I went back there. Um, and this is kind of like I'm going to put a if we do send an enforcement order out, I'm going to put a cover letter as well, not just send them this. >> Yeah. >> Um, but I went back there. Yeah, there's shopping carts that are recent. There's
shopping carts that probably predate me. Um, and then there's, like I said, there's an electric mobility scooter back there, too. that's in it. So, that needs to go like now. Um, but it is like way off away from They have no idea they're there. Yeah, >> they have no idea they're there.
>> Um, for the enforcement order, I put a a date for the like a restoration plan shall be filed um by said date. I put December 10th. In that case, that would just be confirmation that they're going to do something about it because there's no restoration needed. It's just remove it.
>> I think that's fine. >> Hi. tax hearing. >> No, conservation. >> Um, so you can change that date if you'd like. Uh, but there's no restoration plan to be filed. Um, and I'll explain that in the cover letter if you want to
go this route. The benefit of going the route of actually issuing the enforcement order is it actually gives them a binding timeline instead of just letting it drag on and on and on. Um, but it can go however you want. If you just want to send a letter, we can absolutely just send a letter. They've worked with us in the past. It's
up to you. Change anything you want. >> I mean, I'm okay with sending >> a letter. >> Well, what's the December 10th? >> Yeah. Just have a restoration plan. Not that they have to have >> which would just be basically saying, "Hey, we're going to do this and here's when." >> Oh, yeah.
>> You know, um there's no restoration. They didn't like the bank isn't destroyed. Nothing's ruined. They just need to remove the stuff from from the puzzic. Um, >> yeah, December. I was going to say as long as it doesn't have to be done by
then. Not that probably it's going to take that long, but >> yeah, just it's just receipt. >> I mean, they could and they it depends, I think, on weather. Like if it >> right, you know, >> if it freezes over, they're they're there, >> right? Yeah. Then they'll just have to tell us, okay, we'll get to it in the spring, which is fine. I'm okay with
that. >> That's the one thing I do recommend about this way is because I would attach a cover letter. So, it's not um though intimidating, but uh but it just it keeps a case file open for us and it keeps them up to some kind of binding
date and don't suspect I don't suspect there'd be issues, but it however you want to do it. Yeah, happy to just send a letter without it at all. Could do it in stages, right? with a letter that ask for an informal. >> Yeah, we can do we do not have to issue
the enforcement order yet. >> Friendly informal uh promise to to clean it up and >> right >> and then proceed from there with the actual enforcement order >> and they will option >> to either either approach
depending on what everyone else wants. I like the idea of just you've already done all this work. So just attaching a letter to the front of it explaining what it is and they have it and >> we just need an answer from them by December 10th and in no way have to have it done by December 10th. I mean I I'm
okay with that but >> too >> really not a lot of work to be done if you look like because I have a picture of the whole area back here. >> Yeah. >> So um but yeah, so they get a picture of the whole area. They'd get a picture. I denoted on GIS exactly where the spot is
so they know how to get there. And then I'll attach a cover letter better explaining like step by step how to like what we mean. Like you're not obviously sending us an actual restoration plan, >> right? Yeah. We just need to >> this case at least.
>> What building is this? >> Yeah. Same as uh before just uh in a different area. >> They cleaned up the bank. Oh, yeah. >> Like way down the other end, I think. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> Yeah, >> I'm good with that. >> How do you feel about the date? December
10th for confirmation of >> They were pretty quick to respond to us last time, right? >> Yeah, I think that's fine. That gives them a month to get back to us. >> Yeah, that's >> Yeah, >> that sounds good. >> That's good. We need to vote on it or >> Yeah.
>> Uh >> is it just a motion to accept >> to issue an enforcement order to um you could use the name of the violator the So Heritage Park. >> So Heritage Park JV. Okay. >> Motion.
>> Uh so a motion to issue uh EO 2025-05 to SO Heritage Park JV LLC. You issue the enforcement order too. Yeah. You don't want to use the Yeah. The actual enforcement just >> to issue the enforcement order. Yeah.
>> To Heritage Park, JBLC EO 2025-05. >> Second. >> All in favor? >> I next is the conservation commission under the CPC representative. Do we have anyone who wants to do it?
I'd be willing to um >> it's not it's not difficult. It literally there's usually two meetings a year. Um people in town will submit applications to use CPC funds. Um you meet on them, discuss them. You have to
decide if they meet the parameters of what CPC funds can be used for. So there's certain areas like if it's recreation, um usually the land has to be purchased with. So if you're trying to improve recreation area, it has to open purchase with CPC funds. Okay. So it's like
there's little nuances to it and stuff. Um and then um that's really I mean that's honestly that's really it. You talk about them and then if you approve them then uh chair of CPC will bring them to town council.
Um do it. Um want to rock paper scissor. >> What was that? >> You want a rock paper scissor? >> Sure. >> This that government official. >> Yeah.

>> Yeah. It was a project at one point, wasn't it? >> Oh yeah. >> Yeah. >> We assumed. >> Gotcha. Oh, that's right. >> Whoever wants to do it, we just need to vote that yes, we have been
>> Yeah. only twice a year maybe. >> Yeah. Um you'd like to see what you Megan? >> No. Rock, paper, scissor. >> No, I think that'll be good. selfishly. I kind of want to learn
more about it so I can >> advance my my career and knowledge. Um, >> okay. >> Can we >> where someone's fighting over it? Two people fighting over it. >> Motion, >> huh? >> Make a motion. >> We're going to meet in the parking lot
