Commission accepts minutes and continues multiple hearings to March 9

The Gardner Conservation Commission conducted routine business, accepting the previous meeting minutes and continuing several hearings to the commission’s next meeting on March 9.

Speaker 2 moved to accept the minutes 'as written' and Speaker 3 seconded; the presiding officer recorded a voice vote of 'Aye' and the minutes were approved. The commission also reported that three enforcement orders have been continued, with two specific properties (including 282 Brookside Drive) scheduled for continuation to May 11.

On wetlands and land‑use hearings, the commission considered items with no representatives present. A request relating to 31 Traverse Street and a separate item for 170 Mill Street were each continued to March 9 after motions from Speaker 2. Speaker 1 recorded the voice votes in favor.

Speaker 1 announced a notice related to 677 Symphony Boulevard — a Walmart filling station item — which has been continued to the next hearing date. The meeting closed after Speaker 2 moved to adjourn, Speaker 1 seconded, and the presiding officer recorded a voice vote of 'Aye.'

The transcript records voice votes only (verbal 'Aye') for these routine motions; specific roll‑call tallies were not recorded in the meeting record.
