Conservation Commission

The Conservation Commission is established per RSA 36:A and shall consist of three to seven members and one alternate member. The Commission reviews applications for conditional use permits and forwards their comments to the Planning Board for final approval. The Commission may also review State Dredge and Fill and State Wetlands applications.

The Commission is responsible to attend periodic workshop meetings and site walks, work with other groups and organizations interested in natural resources in the City and be involved with conservation easement monitoring and land acquisition.

The Conservation Commission's primary duty is to promote the proper utilization and protection of the natural resources and to protect the watershed resources of the City.
