Commission receives culvert update at 170 Mill St., approves training reimbursement and closes meeting
Summary
The commission received an update on a corrugated culvert at 170 Mill Street that may require replacement, approved up to $595 for staff/commission training, heard demolition progress, and adjourned.
The Gardner Conservation Commission received multiple administrative and infrastructure updates at its Nov. 10 meeting.
Staff reported on an undersized, aging corrugated metal culvert at 170 Mill Street. Consultants and the city are coordinating a site visit; staff said the culvert may be replaced with a longer‑lasting option such as an open‑box culvert or bridge structure to address capacity and longevity concerns.
In new business, staff said surface demolition of an old boiler/portal structure is complete and that monitoring of substructure and debris removal will continue. The commission voted to authorize reimbursement not to exceed $595 for commissioner or staff attendance at a MACC enforcement fundamentals workshop; the motion passed by voice vote.
The commission then moved to end the evening’s hearings and adjourned.
