Scarborough citizen-led committee updates

SCARBOROUGH LEADER • December 16, 2022

The Scarborough Conservation Commission had a fall goal-setting session to align with those outlined in the 2021 Comprehensive Plan. Their goals are split into three categories: conserving land, building resiliency, and promoting engaged citizen stewardship. Over the past few months, the Conservation Commission collaborated with the Sustainability Committee to draft a memo to the Town Council encouraging them to require sustainable building practices and increased conservation when developers seek waivers to the Town’s Growth Management Ordinance.
