The Natural Resources Commission (NRC) is a 5-member board appointed by the Town Manager, with the approval of the Select Board, for 3-year, staggered terms. The NRC is responsible for the overall stewardship of the natural resources of the Town, and the establishment of Town environmental policy in conjunction with the Select Board and Town Meeting. The Natural Resources Commission acts as Conservation Commission in all matters delegated by Massachusetts General Law or Town bylaw.
FILING DEADLINES: Applications for NRC review must be received 21 days prior to a scheduled meeting unless otherwise noted below. Revised information for continued hearings must be submitted by noon no later than 9 business days prior to the scheduled hearing of the Commission.
