Conservation Commission · Meeting of May 26, 2026

DUNSTABLE — The Dunstable Conservation Commission authorized enforcement action at 285 Pleasant Street, the Ramirez property, after observing unpermitted excavation work. Chair Alan Chaney was directed to conduct a site visit, with staff to issue formal correspondence if warranted; the commission voted unanimously to continue monitoring and authorize further enforcement steps. The property had violations documented since 2022.

The commission granted extension requests for two Notice of Intent environmental review hearings—New England Power's stormwater project at 5 Pleasant Street Extension, and MCO & Associates' cottage project at 164 Pleasant Street, with the second motion carrying 4-0 with one abstention. The commission also unanimously approved ordering and installation of five new conservation property signs at Curtis, Gardner, Parkhurst, Tercentenary, and Holmes.
