Summary
The town holds roughly 50-60 conservation easements but hasn't done formal field monitoring in years, meaning encroachments and dumping could go unnoticed. A licensed forester offered to rebuild the program, likely on a rotating schedule with a volunteer commission committee coordinating priorities.
