The Conservation Commission voted Aug. 12 to issue a Certificate of Compliance for work at 546-548 Main Street (Casa Bella) after members who visited the site reported the area had stabilized and revegetated.

A commission member reported that the site appeared revegetated and stable and that installed measures were functioning. Following a motion to issue the certificate, members voted in favor: “Do you play in favor? Aye,” one member said, and the commission confirmed issuance.

Commission staff also noted an additional certificate (related to a Bedrock lot on Shapin Road, previously Lot 93/now Lot 1) that the buyers’ attorney requested; staff said the paperwork was prepared and would be signed. The commission signed two certificates during the meeting.

Why it matters: Certificates of Compliance confirm that work permitted under a prior order of conditions has been completed in accordance with permit terms and that required stabilization measures are in place; issuing a COC removes municipal enforcement obligations tied to that permit.

No appeals or contested findings were raised at the meeting. The commission did not provide details on remaining monitoring or reporting conditions for either site during the public discussion.
