That the Board of Selectmen approves the acceptance by the Conservation Commission of the deed to property located on Summer Street from the Duxbury Affordable Housing Trust, as approved at the March 10, 2018 Annual Town Meeting under Article 37, and to dedicate said parcel for conservation purposes in perpetuity
From the minutes
“Mr. Madigan moved that the Board of Selectmen approves the acceptance by the Conservation Commission of the deed to property located on Summer Street from the Duxbury Affordable Housing Trust, as approved at the March 10, 2018 Annual Town Meeting under Article 37, and to dedicate said parcel for conservation purposes in perpetuity. Second by Mr. Dahlen. Before voting Mr. Dahlen spoke briefly about the background of this matter. The parcel on Summer Street was town-owned Conservation land and was turned over to the Duxbury Affordable Housing Trust (DAHT) as a potential development site for affordable housing. When DAHT had some perc testing done, it was learned it was in a high water table area and would require a mounded septic system. In addition, if a house were built it would have to be built on a mound. The other houses in the area are not. Given that the DAHT decided this would not be an appropriate parcel for development and therefore wish to convey the parcel to the Conservation Commission to be maintained as open space. The Board then voted on the motion. VOTE: 3:0:0.” (Motion: Madigan, second: Dahlen)
