Meeting called to order; staff asked for public comment and none was offered. The commission moved on to minutes and other agenda items.
The Gardner Conservation Commission held a hearing on a notice of intent for a proposed Walmart fuel station at 677 Tiffany Boulevard, approved a variance to allow some work in a previously disturbed 30-foot no‑disturb zone with a written disclaimer to special condition 38, and required third‑party inspections during construction. Commissioners also heard routine agent updates on grants, a recent fire site and potential erosion controls, and discussed putting about 80 acres under Article 97 protection and clearing two wildlife passageways.
