Wellesley Natural Resources

More Coming Soon

  
Read this thoughtful position paper written in the Fall of 2015 by the members of the Natural Resources Commission describing their stand on the proposed Special Act.
 
"The very existence of the independent Natural Resources Commission is a reflection of that priority. Conservation commissions in other towns are appointed, and they are primarily permitting boards that administer wetlands regulations. Wellesley's independent elected NRC is uniquely charged with a much broader mission of stewardship over conservation land, parks, and natural resources, and includes public education and advocacy."
