Conservation Commission — July 28, 2026
The Commission will first consider several Requests for Determination of Applicability (RDAs). These include installing new septic systems and a well at 28 and 26 Cornish Field Road, removing three American Beech trees at 18 Goldfinch Lane, and rebuilding handrails and stairs near Boot Pond at 3 Hog Rock Road. Notably, the Department of Environmental Management has requested an RDA to resurface existing roadways within Myles Standish State Forest.
Following these, the Commission will continue discussions on two Notices of Intent. High Point Treatment Center Inc. is seeking to add a gym and office suite at 1233 State Road. The Massachusetts Department of Fish & Game and the Town of Plymouth are moving forward with a major project at Town Wharf/185 Water Street, involving concrete floodwalls, reconstructed seawalls, a boat ramp extension, and a new 80-foot ADA accessible gangway.
Finally, the board may discuss drafting a letter to Town Counsel regarding updates on 30 Eagle Hill Drive and a letter to property owners regarding pre-project outreach to the Conservation Office.
