At the June 10 Andover Conservation Commission meeting, members approved a $150 contribution to ASLPT even though the request was not listed on the public agenda. The same meeting covered a potential appeal of a May 19 ZBA driveway permit near the McDonough Easement because the commission and ASLPT were never notified as abutters. Runoff concerns into wetlands were noted. Both matters were handled without prior public notice. Official minutes have since been published and confirm the unanimous votes and action items that followed.
