Dear Mr. Main:
The Montville Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Commission is pleased to provide this letter of support for Avalonia Land Conservancy’s effort to obtain a CT DEEP Open Space and Watershed
Land Acquisition Grant to acquire the Gladys J. Bond Trustee properties, +/- 669 acres in Oakdale, Connecticut.
This acquisition will significantly expand the open space area of the Niantic River Watershed near the Barnes Reservoir and the Bogue Brook Reservoir, increasing recreational opportunities
for the community, secure wildlife and fish habitats, and protect and conserve the watershed area to the north and south of the property.
Sincerely,
Douglas K. Brush, Chairman
Inland Wetlands and Watercourses
Town of Montville
