CPA Projects – Detailed Report

The Town through its Conservation Commission owns multiple parcels located at the end of Sheridan Street, and these parcels can offer access to the Shawsheen River.  Access in this location requires the design and construction of a boardwalk, small parking area and educational signage for the public and residents using either canoes or kayak can put-in their at the correct location to maintain and preserve Conservation land supporting wetland resource areas including forested riparian/Riverfront Area, floodplain and Buffer Zone.   Providing additional river access to the Shawsheen River encourages educational opportunities and a higher quality of life for residents. This project will use CPA funding to maximize the land already owned by the Town and aligns well with the goals outlined in the CPC Plan.
