Stockbridge Harbor dredging on hold due to lack of funding; commission to consider contacting legislators

Director Adam Backus told the commission that the Stockbridge Harbor dredging project is on hold due to a lack of funding; the minutes include no further specificity on missing funding sources or timelines. Commissioners later proposed sending communications to legislators about the Knowles-Nelson funding shortfall and flagged Brothertown land acquisition as a possible future agenda item.

Backus also provided an update on a Brothertown Harbor camera; the minutes do not list technical or cost details. The minutes record the commission’s intent to consider outreach to legislators and to add the potential Brothertown land acquisition as future business at the next meeting scheduled for July 2.
