Summary

The Select Board approved acceptance of a 6.2-acre parcel offered by the McKay family that abuts existing conserved land. Planning and conservation boards requested acceptance to connect town open-space holdings.

The Select Board voted to accept a 6.2-acre conservation land donation from the McKay family during its Nov. 18 meeting.

Staff said the parcel stems from an open-space condition tied to an approved residential development at 357 South Street. The planning board and conservation commission recommended the town accept the parcel because it connects to existing conserved holdings and would strengthen the town’s open-space network.

The board moved to accept the land donation and approved the motion by voice vote with no recorded opposition. Staff noted the parcel is backland (not directly fronting South Street) and will be integrated into the town’s conservation holdings.
