Summary

Member Mike Dudek asked fellow commissioners to review the town's Plan of Conservation & Development and bring ideas for aquatic invasive plant management, citing a 2011 'The Habitat' article about Vernon’s program as a model.

During Other Business at the Feb. 9 meeting, commission member Mike Dudek reported he is reviewing his files and drew attention to an article in 'The Habitat' from March 2011 about the Town of Vernon implementing a townwide invasive aquatic plant management program.

Dudek urged members to review the current Plan of Conservation & Development (POCD) and bring ideas to the next meeting so the commission can submit input to the Planning & Zoning commission as it updates the POCD. The minutes instruct members to look over the current POCD and prepare suggestions for the next meeting for submission to Planning & Zoning.

The idea is to include actionable items in the town's 10-year plan that would enable programs such as invasive aquatic plant management. No formal motion or funding decision was recorded; the item was advisory and part of the commission's regular input to Planning & Zoning.
