Groton Conservation Commission - 11/2/26

The Groton Conservation Commission meeting on November 2, 2026, included discussion of several infrastructure and environmental matters. The chair reported on a state-led maintenance project for two culverts, estimated at about $1.8 million per culvert, including proposed construction access roads and potential impacts to nearby wetlands and water quality. Commissioners noted the town had not been asked to provide an opinion and that permitting was being handled by state and federal agencies. Parks and Recreation had also received grants to advance trail marking for the cross-town trail system; no grant amount or vendor was identified. No contract awards, bids, or commission spending approvals were made.
